The leadership of the All
progressive Congress in kogi state have passed a vote of confidence on senator
Dino Melaye who represents Kogi West in the Senate.
According to a communique issued
at the end of APC Kogi state leaders meeting held in Abuja on Wednesday, July
5th, 2017, the leaders declared total support for all the positions canvassed
by Senator Dino Melaye in matters of Kogi State, saying the lawmaker took up
the struggle on behalf of the good people of the State.
The party, however, expressed
worries over the political bickering vis-Ã -vis the state of affairs in Kogi
State under Governor Yahaya Bello.
The leaders while giving approval
to all the steps taken so far by the State Executive of the APC in Kogi State
led by its Chairman, Alhaji Haddy Ametuo also observed that the State
Government under Governor Yahaya Bello is not only in a confused state of
affairs, but heading towards political cul-de-sac.
The communique reads in parts ” The Governor Yahaya Bello’s anti-party activities led to the loss of 2 APC Senatorial seats, one House of Representatives seat and 2 State House of Assembly members’ seats to the opposition party (PDP) thereby causing a huge set-back to our Party in Kogi State.”
“Those positions mentioned above were won during the 2015 elections before Alhaji Yahaya Bello joined the APC and his subsequent emergence as the Governor of Kogi State.”
“The only senatorial seat left for the Kogi State APC family in the Senate is being harassed by Governor Yahaya Bello and cohorts as evidenced by the on-going charade, known as re-call exercise, which is pregnant with forgeries and absurdities.”
“We are concerned that many weeks after the submission of the Chief Tony Momoh’s Reconciliation Report, the National Leadership of our Party, APC, is yet to take any step towards the implementation of its recommendations.
They also admonished the
Independent National electoral commission (INEC ) not to waste its scarce
resources in sustaining the ongoing recall being allegedly perpetuated by the
Government of Kogi State.
The 20 APC Kogi leaders who
signed the communique are Senator Alex Kadir, Senator Mohammed Salami Ohiare, Senator Nicholas Ugbane, Senator Dangana E
Ocheja, Senator Abdulrahman Abubakar, Rt. Hon Clarance Olafemi, Rt. Hon
Abdullahi Bello, Hon James A Faleke, Hon Mohammed Idris and Alhaji (Prince)
Mohammed Audu.
Others are Hon Duro Meseko,
Alhaji Abubakar Rajab, Pharm. A. Zakari, Chief Michael Ozovehe, Chief Lawrence
Gbenga Asagun, Hon (Dr) Idris Jimoh, Engr. S. A. Ezekiel, Dr Tom Ohikere Alhaji Sanusi Abubakar and Alhaji Haddy
Ametuo.

The names are the same old people who want things done as usual. Governor Yahaya Bello said no.
ReplyDeleteOne salary per person and not 10 salaries per single of them. Yahaya Bello has paid the genuine state workers up till May, only hydra-headed ones are being told to show their real head before payment.
All I can say to this commentator is may thunder strike your mouth that lies. All my brothers and sisters are genuine workers and they've not been paid.
DeleteThe 20 Kogi APC leaders indeed! From their positions, isn't it obvious they're birds of the same feathers with Melaye? NONSENSE!
