Speaking at the meeting, the President of South-South Residents in Kogi State, Mr. Abu Micheal, said the gathering was aimed at reaffirming the collective resolve of Southerners in the state to align fully with the present administrations at both the federal and state levels.
According to him, the inclusive governance style of Governor Ododo, which for the first time in the history of the state has given a sense of belonging to non-indigenes, particularly the South-South community, has reinforced their confidence in his administration’s vision of building a virile and united Kogi State.
Micheal noted that the community would mobilize massively to support all candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 general elections, stressing that continuity of the APC government remains critical to sustaining development, peace and unity.

Hon. Oshilim reassured that Deltans and indeed the entire South-South residents in Kogi State are solidly behind the Tinubu and Ododo administrations, describing their support as total, sincere and unwavering.
Other Deltan leaders who spoke at the meeting echoed similar sentiments, pledging to work as foot soldiers for the re-election of President Tinubu and Governor Ododo, while commending the state government for its security architecture and commitment to inclusive development.
The meeting ended with a resolution to intensify grassroots sensitization across the 21 local government areas of the state to ensure massive electoral support for the APC in the forthcoming elections.
