President Bola Tinubu has presented the symbolic flag of the
All Progressive Congress, APC, to candidates contesting gubernatorial seats in
Bayelsa, Kogi and Imo states.
The President handed the flags to the candidates – Hope
Uzodinma, Timipreye Sylva and Ahmed Ododo of Imo, Bayelsa and Kogi states,
respectively – at the Presidential Villa Abuja on Thursday, where he wished
them victory at the off-season elections coming up on November 11.
Recall that the Independent National Electoral Commission,
INEC, had fixed November 11, 2023 to conduct the off- season elections in the
three states.
The National Chairman of the APC, Abdullahi Ganduje led the
three candidates to the Presidential Villa where the flags were handed down to
them.
Tinubu in a few remarks said, “Your excellencies, particularly
the governor of Kogi who is working hard to hand over to another product of our
party, Usman Ododo, we’re happy to have you here.
“Hope Uzodinma, the great hope of our party and the
Chairman, Progressive Governors Forum. Thank you for the good job you have been
doing.
“Timipre Sylva, congratulations on what you’ve achieved as a

” We are all fronting a crusade for democracy, in
particular, in this off season election. It’s our hope and my hope, we believe
you will all always come victorious.
