Fasehun, who is also the founder of the Oodua Progressives Congress (OPC), a Yoruba socio/cultural organisation, dismissed insinuation that the UPN is an offshoot of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Addressing a press conference in Lagos, the UPN chairman said it is imperative of the electorate to take cognisance of the languages of both candidates, pointing to the fact that one represents a gentleman par excellence, while the other reflected an outrageous signpost to violence, insurgency and terrorism, a road this country no longer wishes to travel ever again. According to him, “The President and Commander-in-Chief constantly says that his ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian. Those are the words of a good soul, a gentleman par excellence. “On the other hand, the retired General has encouraged his followers to mix the ballot papers with the blood of dogs and baboons. Buhari’s exact words are: “If what happened in 2011 should again happen in 2015, by the grace of God, the dog and the baboon would all be soaked in blood. “That is an outrageous signpost to violence, insurgency and terrorism, a road this country no longer wishes to travel ever again.” Fasehun added that Buhari has said he would stop Boko Haram if he becomes president “of course, General Buhari can make that boast because he originally set Boko Haram in motion, adding that: “we must remember, a nation that turns its back on its history will never see development. Having weighed all this, UPN has decided to speak up for democracy – democracy without coercion. This is because Nigeria is not the patrimony of any single individual, and no single person can hold the entire nation to ransom. Na wa!ooo Buhari
