He stated that the APC and the PDP might lose their gubernatorial elections in five southern states of the federation.

These states include:

1. Delta state

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) currently controls Delta state under the stewardship of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, who also recently doubled as the party's vice presidential candidate at the just concluded presidential polls.

However, at the presidential polls, the Labour Party's flagbearer, Peter Obi, stunned the PDP by emerging winner in the state.

2. Cross River state

This is another state in the south-south region of Nigeria that suffered the strong wave of the Labour Party.

Being under the All Progressive Congress (APC)'s control, it is customary to think that the party will have a clean sweep at the presidential polls.

Contrastingly, APC lost to the Labour Party at the presidential polls by a wide margin and the incumbent governor, Prof Ben Ayade, who was seeking a seat in the senate, also lost.
