Sequel to the release of timetable by our beloved party APC for the 2023 Kogi State Gubernatorial primary election, which has started in earnest with the Sale of forms, hence, the change of baton to lugard House has begun.
Seven(7) years down the line, His Excellency, Governor Yahaya Bello, has demonstrated unparalleled commitment towards birthing a state we can proudly call home. Today, without gainsaying, the transformation is obvious, far from the gory narrative of the past.
I am very excited to be part of the building process from the first day, learning at close watch the act of Good Governance and the long term plans for the state under the leadership of His Excellency. Therefore to sustain that tempo and path, such successor must not only be Loyal, competent and committed to service, of importance, it must be someone with clear understanding of the New Direction administration; The take off, the journey so far and the developmental plans ahead.
So also, it’s a challenging role that goes beyond knowing the basics of Governance or common proclivity for building roads etc, such person must be armed with Global standard Economic knowledge, workable fiscal policies and sound financial management that will launch the state to the eldorado of productivity.
Therefore, i am more equipped and passionate to continue on that path of sustainable development with an over-all objective of building on His Excellencies legacy in the state.
However, before arriving at these far reaching decision to release myself for selfless service to the state, I have deeply sought the face of God Almighty, consulted widely with leaders of our party in the state and also party hierarchy across the 21 LGA and their responses was not only positive but an impetus to drive on.
My Loyalty and Commitment to His Excellencies political school, ideology and decision remain absolute and untainted, hence, only through his Directive and nod I picked the courage to pursue this lofty aspiration. A Leader, Principal and Mentor I will forever revere.
By God’s Grace, I shall begin the journey of Consolidation for a Greater Kogi Project with the purchase of my Nomination and Expression of Interest form at the APC National Headquarter, Abuja.
Date; 17th February, 2023
According to the word of God “Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the dominion of the Universe, and Who has power over everything”. I totally hand over the project into his hands, because he’s God over the earth and heaven.
I sincerely covet for your Vehement Prayers, firm Support and continous Cooperation on this journey.
Thank you and God bless
