Hon. Muhammad Sanni Gambo Officially Assumes Office as Kogi PDP Chairman, Vows 2027 Victory, take over Lugard House, Aso Villa.

 

Lokoja — Hon. Muhammad Sanni
Gambo has today officially assumed office as Kogi State Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). This development followed a ruling by the Federal High Court, Lokoja.

Recalled that in the judgment delivered on November 10, 2025 (Suit No. FRC/LKJ/CS/39/2024), the Federal High Court declared Hon. Gambo the duly elected PDP Chairman after a contested congress and a series of legal battles.

Following the receipt of the Certified True Copy of the judgment, Hon. Gambo was welcomed by a massive crowd of supporters, security agencies (Police, Civil Defence, DSS) and party leaders amidst cheers.

In his maiden speech, the Chairman affirmed Kogi as a “PDP state” and called for unity of members lpto win the 2027 elections.

He described his victory as a collective triumph for Kogi PDP, thanking elders, Sen. Natasha Akpoti Udaughan (Kogi Central), and the judiciary for standing as “the last hope of the common man.”

He pledged to reposition the party, recover lost ground, and bring back defectors from APC and other parties.

Gambo also highlighted a “blueprint” to transform the PDP into the unbeatable force in Kogi, promising an open‑door policy, inclusivity, and relentless pursuit of development. He urged aggrieved members to forgive past grievances and join the rebuilding effort.

Recalled that Hon. Gambo finished second in the August 31 2024 PDP congress; the alleged winner, owing to the fact that Enemona Anyebe, was earlier barred by Court from contesting.

The court in it ruling on 10/11/2015 had ordered the immediate swearing‑in and recognition of Hon. Gambo’s majority votes after zoning arrangements were validated.

Hon. Gambo vowed to retake Lugard House (State House) and contribute to the PDP’s quest for the Presidency in 2027.
