KogiDecides: Why Ebira Should Support Prince Abubakar Audu – Tom Ohikere


As the November 21st Kogi Governorship election gather momentum, the head, Media and Publicity, Audu/Faleke Campaign Organization, Dr. Tom Ohikere, has implored the people of Kogi Central Senatorial District to vote en masse for the APC governorship candidate, Prince Abubakar Audu.

According to Ohikere, Prince Audu has remained, today, the best governor, in terms of infrastructural development and has demonstrated uncommon leadership traits.

Ohikere, who commended the people of Ebiraland for the warm reception accorded the APC-team led by the Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, also applauded them for their show of support for the party and their maturity during the rally.

He promised that Prince Audu, when elected, would help in entrenching the programmes of the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government, adding that since the people of the state are ready to embrace the change mantra, the Ebira people cannot afford to do otherwise.

The Campaign head for the APC in Kogi State said despite the falsehood that are being peddled by the soon-to-be opposition party in Kogi State, the PDP, the people are wiser and are ready to judge both of the candidate on the basis of their capacity.

He opined: Come to think of it, the Prince Audu that the people of Kogi State know is a man that is interested in the development of all sectors of the state economy, because he knows that it is through that the social problems confronting the people can be addressed.

The incumbent governor and his handlers are busy raising issues where there is none, rather than telling Kogians how they can bring development to them because everything is totally down at the moment.

On Ebira agenda, he said: As a bonafide Ebira man myself I am representing the interests and desires of my people. I am committed to the Ebira agenda because nationality question is a major factor in any federal system.

He continued: We must not reduce the Ebira agenda to a mere power rotation. It includes but not limited to that. Youth employment, infrastructural development, completion of Ajaokuta project, total activation of the Itakpe Iron ore company and commercialization of our cultural festival among other important issues combine to form the much valued Ebira agenda.

These are issues that cannot be totally achieved within the confines of the power and resources of the state. That is why we need a federated and nationalistic party like the APC to achieve the totality of the Ebira agenda
