My Achievements In Kogi Will Win Gov Polls For APC – Yahaya Bello
Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has promised his supporters that the All Progressives Congress will win the November governorship election with a wide margin on what he called “the back of the unprecedented achievements of the party” under his administration.
He said this just as he emphasized the state government’s commitment to cooperating with security agencies in ensuring a peaceful election and a level playing field for all contenders.
Bello revealed this in Lokoja, the state capital, on Thursday, when he received the Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Christopher Musa, who was on a collaboration visit to the governor towards a peaceful election in the state.
The governor, who was represented by his Deputy, Chief Edward Onoja, maintained that he would work within the directives of President Bola Tinubu in achieving a violence-free election, noting that his administration had made security a topmost priority since his assumption of office.
He said, “Having done well in all sectors of the economy of the state, particularly in security, we’re very optimistic that it will encourage our people to turn out en masse and exercise their civic duty.
“Our outstanding achievements, which are visible, will speak and work for us, with the greatest of assurances that we will win overwhelmingly. We will cooperate with the Armed Forces in ensuring a peaceful election and also provide a level playing field for all contenders and for the people to turn out en masse to vote.
“Kogi people are peaceful. We have, since the coming of our administration, made the security of lives and properties a priority. We want to assure our President, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, of stability and peace before, during, and after the governorship election.
“We also want to applaud the CDS for measures he has put in place for a peaceful election in the state.”
