The governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kogi State, Musa Wada has said that his victory at the just concluded governorship primaries is for all the aspirants who participated in the process.

He personally made this statement available to journalists in Abuja on Saturday.

Wada said that his nomination would not have been possible without the cooperation of the aspirants who ensured the primaries ended a success.

The PDP candidate won by polling 748 votes to beat 12 other aspirants. A former governor, Idris Wada, came third with 345 votes.

“It is normal that in every contest, a winner must emerge; but in this case, nobody is a winner because as far as I am concerned, we all won. It is a collective victory.

“All of us who participated in the primaries are all aware of the challenges the people of Kogi State are facing, a horrible experience occasioned by the unresponsive leadership, maladministration and lack of direction of the incumbent governor,” Mr Wada said

“I am only elected and put forward to spearhead the battle to oust the unresponsive APC-led government of Yahaya Bello in Kogi State which has impoverished the lives of Kogites and rendered our people hopeless.

“I cannot do it alone. It is a task that requires holistic effort to get done; a collective responsibility of all of my co-contestants in the primaries and we shall be victories in this battle Insha Allah”, he said.

He thanked the party executives, delegates and other organs of the party for their efforts at ensuring the unity of the party.
