The So Much Noise About Dekina PDP Congress And Alleged Imposition of Alhaji Husseini Ejini by Alih shaibu.


 

Congress is intra party process that usher in a new party executives from ward level to National level, and this tradition is part of political annual festivities that must be observe by all political parties in this country.

For that the Peoples Democratic Party as a leading opposition party can’t be exempted. In the North central there was a gentlemen arrangement reached before Kogi state Congress was conducted in 2019 which led to the re-election of all the state excos including the state Chaiman Engr Ohotu and others. The same arrangements was repeated at the North Central Congress in Markudi, Benue state, that led to all the excos returned unopposed.

Coming to Kogi state local government and ward Congresses, in order to avoid implosion, a stakeholders meeting was held in Lokoja, the state capital, and it was agreed that the consensus arrangements should adopted. This arrangement means that Alhaji Husseini Ibrahim Ejini should be among people the first person to be given rights of first refusal having done well as Chairman of Dekina division ever since he took over from late Sani Dr Hook.

Due to the fact that the decision was kicked against by a section of stakeholders in Anyigba, a ward election was conducted to determine the eventual chairman notwithstanding the decision of consensus arrangements as agreed by stakeholders. Contestants of the election, which was organized by the Anyigba leader under the leadership of Anyigba ward chairman Alhaji Amidu and supervised by Hon Isah Shabba the former state head of service include;

1. Alhaji Husseini Ibrahim “Ejini” with (10 votes)
2. Alhaji Yahaya Jibrin “Apiro”. with (6 votes)
3. Hon. Alhassan Abdul “Ogwu” (8 votes)
4. Hon. Atache Usman (3 votes)
5.Hon. Adejoh Momoh (2 votes) with one invalid vote.

Penultimate to the election, the contestants agreed and signed memorandum of Understanding that whoever emerges as winner will be supported. As fate had it, Alhaji Husseini Ibrahim Ejini emerged with with Alhassan Abdul Ogwu as runner up.

On August 5, the outcome of the contest was communicated to Captain Idris Wada, a former Governor and leader of the party at his Abuja residence. In attendance were:

Capt. Idris Wada
Engr Musa Wada
Senator Nicholas Ugbane
Hon Benjamin Ikani
Alhaji Mikail Isah
Comr. Usman Okai Austin CNA.
Hon. Simon Atadoga
Dr. Mohammed Shiabu Tettes
Hon. Emmanuel Omebije
Hon. Halilu Abdul

Although Ikani Okolo, expressed his dissatisfaction that he wasn’t invited to the election, he nonetheless signed the endorsement of Alhaji Hussini Ibrahim Ejini as the consensus Candidate for Anyigba after he was apologised to and pacified.

It’s unfortunate that the mischievous elements has vent on tarnishing the image of Capt Idris Wada and others who attended the meeting of imposition in an election organized by Anyigba party stakeholders Chaiman by Isah Shabba, perhaps some are surprised by the outcome.

For those who are aggrieved, it’s important we understand that Congress outcome may not favor everybody but the will of the majority must prevail. I appeal to everyone to queue behind Alhaji Husseini Ejini, the consensus chairman of the party for Dekina Chapter.

Alih shaibu,
Writes From Agala Road,
Anyigba.
