A political group under the aegies of Ododo Sure Movement, (OSM) has congratulated the Kogi State Governor-Elect Alhaji Usman Ahmed Ododo with a charge to consolidate on the numerous achievements of the current administration especially in the area of women and youth empowernment.
The Convener of the group , Alhaji Ibrahim Isa-Amoka stated this in a congratulatory message he personally signed and made available to newsmen in Lokoja on Tuesday.
Isa-Amoka, a former Clerk of Kogi State House of Assembly described the peaceful and orderly conduct of the people during the off-cycle governorship election as impressive and expressed optimism that the support will continue to translate into gains of democracy for the entire Kogi State.
While appreciating the people of Kogi Central, West and some parts of Eastern senatorial district for their massive support for the APC in the just concluded Governorship election, the Convener of the group urged the Governor-Elect to ensure that the dividend of democracy spread across the three senatorial district to justify the total support the people gave to him.
“This type of support has never happen before in Kogi state. The people of Kogi west had three of their kinsmen as candidate of other political parties in the election , but they gave their total support to the APC candidate Usman Ahmed Ododo because they believe in him and entrusted him with their mandate.
“I am using this medium to appeal to the Governor-Elect to consolidate on the landmark achievements of Governor Yahaya Bello especially in the areas of security, education, health , agriculture, infrastructure development among others” he stated.
Isa-Amoka called on the people of the State to give Ododo their maximum support, noting that the Governor-Elect represents Kogi Agenda.
“I want to congratulate all Kogites on the victory of the APC at the November 11th Governorship Election in Kogi State.
“This victory has shown strength in unity and I am glad that the will of the people has prevailed. This is indeed, a new era for us in Kogi State and by the special grace of God Almighty the people of the state will enjoy dividend of democracy under the Governor-Elect” he stated.
