Kogi Guber Poll: PDP Warns el-Rufai To Steer clear of Politics In Kogi
The oppositional Peoples Democratic Party PDP, has warned the Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir el-Rufai to steer clear of politics in kogi state.
The PDP noted that the people of Kogi state were already aware of the Governor’s tactics of issuing threats. Adding that such moves would not be welcomed in the state.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary Kola Ologbondiyan, made this know in a press statement released on Sunday.
The statement reads in part “The PDP says Governor el-Rufai must have realized that whatever his party, the APC, perpetuated in Kaduna state in the 2019 general elections can no longer be replayed, not even in Kaduna state or any other state of the federation, not to talk of Kogi state, with its long-standing history of tough resistance to forceful occupation and control.
“Governor el-Rufai, therefore, should not bother to lead a failed team of an expansionist force into a lost battle. He should rather use the opportunity to counsel Governor Yahaya Bello to accept his rejection by the people of Kogi state and be ready to face the burden of a crushing defeat on November 16.
“The APC knows that Governor Bello has gone down in history as the worst governor ever in Nigeria; who cannot point to any development project or initiative in governance and under whom a once vibrant and productive state has been reduced to the poorest and most dejected in our country.”
Kola also noted that the people of Kogi state was determined to send the administration of Governor Bello packing come November 16.
He said “The APC Campaign Council should come to terms with the fact that the people of Kogi State had made up their minds to repay Yahaya Bello in his own coin by kicking him out of office.
“Therefore, no amount of apologies, intimidations, violence, vote-buying and “body bag” metaphor can change their resolve or save Governor Bello from defeat in this election.”
