the choice of my people.
In his words: “You know that responsible politics is about the people’s choice and I am happy
that my personal conviction aligns perfectly with the choice of my people. Ododo has
demonstrated the Readiness, Capacity, and Maturity required to lead a progressive and united Kogi State. His campaign moves so far have been masterstrokes, and he has a clear
vision and understanding of what needs to be improved upon.
I therefore totally support his
