The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kogi State has endorsed President Bola Tinubu and Kogi State Governor Ahmed Ododo for a second term in office in 2027.
The endorsement marked the climax of the rallies organised by APC stakeholders in the state under the chairmanship of Senator Smart Adeyemi.
Leader of APC in Kogi and former governor of the state, Yahaya Bello, formally moved a motion for the endorsement of President Tinubu for a second term in office. The motion was seconded by Senator Adeyemi.
In a separate motion, Bello moved another motion for the endorsement of Governor Ododo for a second term in office. The motion was seconded by the Speaker Kogi State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Aliyu Umar Yusuf.
Earlier in his remarks, Bello said, “Today we are here for a single purpose, to endorse our father, leader, mentor, President Ahmed Bola Tinubu, for him to recontest in 2027.
”We have three reasons why Kogi State is endorsing President Tinubu; he has laid his life for democracy in Nigeria – Tinubu as a person has remained persistent and consistent in his beliefs for Nigerian progress.
”Secondly, President Tinubu is a humanist, a leader without boundaries; he has mentored this generation of democrats like us, and he gave us the opportunity to be where we are in Kogi State.
”Thirdly, Tinubu is the founder of APC in Nigeria; without his vision and progressive ideas, there would not have been APC in Nigeria and Africa today.
”Above all, Tinubu was created with a special grace of God, and no one can fight that grace and succeed. I therefore urge everyone who love this country to support President Tinubu’s second term in office.”
