The statement read: “As a member of the APC and a true democrat, I wish to commend the Executive Governor of Kogi State, His Excellency, Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo on his inauguration.

“I join the good people of Kogi State and party faithful across the nation, to wish him the very best while in office. For me, the party remains supreme and indeed the tenet of democracy is always to demonstrate courage. On this principle, I wish his administration the best leadership in the governance of the state.

“Let me also call on all Kogites and party members to come together and give maximum support to the new administration of Usman Ododo to ensure he succeeds as he takes up the responsibilities of his new office”

“As a dedicated party member, I had hoped to participate in this inaugural ceremony, but I have been out of the country en route the ongoing Ecowas Parliament’s first extraordinary session for 2024. Having been on tour to some West African countries before now, we will be proceeding shortly to Sierra Leone for meetings which is expected to last for approximately fourteen days.

“Be that as it may, I heartily congratulate the new Governor and pray that our great State becomes better under his watch.
