Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on Thursday stormed the ancient City of Lokoja, the Kogi State capital to charge the electorate to vote for the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the November 11 Governorship election.
Atiku, who berated the Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello for allegedly denying the PDP the use of Confluence Stadium Lokoja to conduct their campaign rally said it was time to sack the ruling APC to put an end to unfavourable policies in Kogi State. 'They denied us the use of the stadium in Osun State and we later used the party office for our rally. In the end, the PDP sacked them from the government house.
'I want the world to note that the present Government in Kogi blocked all the venues for us to hold this rally. Our people coming from Kogi East were stopped and are being shot by those loyal to this government. Despite what they did, our supporters still came here because they were tired of Governor Bello's tyranny.
