The statement reads: “while it can not hold Hon. Faleke from tearing the fabrics of his political clan in Kogi State, he should stop the misconception of handing the family to Yahaya Bello.
“We are not commodities that can be sold to a buyer in any open market. Our political participation in Kogi State predates the incursion of Faleke into Kogi politics.
“How then can we become pawns in his political game of chess?
“The choice of Honourable Faleke to work for Governor Yahaya Bello is his personal decision and it does not reflect the decision of the political family of Prince Audu.
“We wondered why Hon. James Abiodun Faleke who was co-opted as a Lagos representative from Ikeja and Lagos politician, to deputise the late former Governor in a relationship that did not last more than 6 months could usurp the large political empire of Prince Abubakar Audu which predated him.

“Some of us have been following late Prince Abubakar Audu since his days at NRC and we moved together to APP, ANPP, ACN and eventually to APC until the death of our leader.
“We wonder how a stranger who joined the family barely six months to the demise of prince Audu think he can sell us as a cheap commodity to Governor Bello. He must certainly have an over blotted image of himself”, the family noted.
