He asked aspirants who had already obtained the forms to ask for a refund from the party secretariat.
Ibrahim, who stated this at the state chapter’s rally held at Idanre town on Saturday, also encouraged all PDP aspirants apart from those eyeing Senate seats, to contact him immediately for financial support.
Aspirants wishing to pick house of assembly tickets are required to obtain a form with N1m while that of House of Representatives costs N1.5m.
The politician, who stormed the venue of the rally alongside some chieftains of the party in an helicopter, promised that he would ensure mobility for the party’s campaigns.
He said, “We are going to campaign with helicopters to complement the buses and motorcycles that we are going to provide at all the councils, wards and units.
“PDP will do everything possible to recover Ondo State from the current tenants at Alagbaka Government House.”
He said the campaign expenses of candidates to be produced by the state chapter would be funded by the party.
According to him, “The LP is a tenant in Alagbaka Government House and they will soon be flushed out, because they have failed the aspiration of the electorate.”
He said next year’s elections would be difficult for anybody to rig because they would be by electronic voting. He urged the people of the state to participate actively in the forthcoming voter registration exercise.
A former governor of the state, Chief Olusegun Agagu, who also addressed the crowd, challenged his successor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, to tell the people of Idanre what he had done for them in the past two years in office.
Among those at the rally were the state PDP Chairman, Dr. Tayo Dairo; Nigeria’s Ambassador to Australia, Prof. Olu Agbi; Otunba Alex Akinnadeju, Otunba Solomon Oladunni, Chief Afolabi Olabimtan, Dr. Eddy Olafeso, Chief Dele Fagoriola, Chief Tayo Alasoadura.
Meanwhile, Ondo State chapter of the Labour Party on Sunday asked the leadership of the PDP in the state to forget the idea of winning next year’s elections.
The LP in a statement by its Director of Publicity, Mr. Seyi James, described the statement credited to the leadership of the PDP at its rally in Idanre on Saturday, as ambitious.
It said the PDP’s rally in Idanre was a failure, noting that this was an indication of the rejection of the party by the people of the state.
According to James, the PDP had announced that an LP local government chairmanship aspirant, Mr. Adeyemi Cole, was to defect to the PDP alongside his supporters, but that the statement turned out to be a ruse.
James noted that the PDP was dead in the state, assuring that no amount of intimidation could make the people of the state to be cowed.
He said, “For 22 months, the people of Ondo State, like a man, stood against the PDP when they stole their mandate. This was despite their legions of thugs who intimidated them with guns; and today, there is peace and progress everywhere in the state.”
