Governorship candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in the forthcoming election in Kogi State, Ahmed Usman Ododo, has promised to consolidate on the initiatives of governor Yahaya Bello if elected as governor in the November governorship poll in the state.
Ododo gave the assurance at the official unveiling of “Okun United for Ododo Project 2023,” held in Kabba, Kabba-Bunu local government area.
Ododo, who was represented by Kogi state commissioner for education, science and technology, Wemi Jones, said his government will recognise all the people who contribute to his emergence as governor.
“I appreciate the Okun race and quite aware that Okun people are brilliant, intelligent and highly educated.
“Okun people are egalitarian in nature and highly principled that can never be taken for granted. I will never take Okun nation and the entire Kogi West for granted.
“I am with you spirit, soul and body, and I promise to give you 100 per cent of the necessary support that is required from me,” he said. The APC candidate appealed to Okun people to give him their total support.
Speaking in his own capacity, the commissioner assured the APC candidate and his running mate that the people of Kogi West will deliver massive votes for Ododo/Joel on November 11, data for the governorship election.
Jones congratulated the people of Kogi West, particularly Okun-land for the arrival of Kogi State University in Kabba.
“I want to assure you like I always do, that the university that God has given to Okun-land at this time through governor Bello is not political, but a university that would thrive.
