Ambassador Tony Ogah, Former SA on Stakeholders to Ex-Governor Yahaya Bello and Former Ibaji Chairmanship Aspirant Under SDP, Set to Dump SDP

The political atmosphere in Kogi State is once again witnessing a defining moment as Ambassador Tony Ogah, a respected philanthropist and Ibaji-born politician, has finalized plans to exit the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
Ambassador Ogah, who previously served as the Senior Special Assistant on Stakeholders to former Governor Alhaji Yahaya Adoza Bello, also contested as a chairmanship aspirant for Ibaji Local Government under the SDP, is widely recognized for his commitment to grassroots development, community empowerment, and inclusive leadership.
His decision to part ways with the SDP follows wide consultations with political stakeholders, opinion leaders, and supporters across Ibaji. According to sources close to him, the move reflects his desire to embrace a political platform that aligns more closely with the yearnings of his people and provides greater opportunity for meaningful representation.
Ambassador Tony Ogah’s political journey has been defined by philanthropy, humility, and service to humanity. Over the years, he has empowered youths, supported widows, and contributed to the growth of his community. His next step is expected to further strengthen his mission of putting Ibaji first and ensuring that his people benefit from responsive governance.
As anticipation builds, political watchers, supporters, and the general public keenly await the official declaration of his new political alignment in the coming days.
