The Kogi State All Progressive Congress campaign council has accused the Peoples Democratic Party of importing a crowd from seven North Central States to
Kogi to grace the rally of its presidential candidate Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, held in Lokoja last Saturday.
“What they said would be an overflow rally that would bring our city to a standstill for the day barely registered on the radar of hardworking Kogites. The innocents who did turn out for them in the vain hope of hearing anything which might persuade them to reevaluate their poor opinion of the PDP left reinforced in their disdain for people whose stint in government brought their state, nay, country, to their knees.
According to him, the presidential rally turned into a farce when people like the former Deputy Governor of the State, Elder Simeon Achuba and the former Speaker of the State Assembly, Alfa Imam were repackaged for Atiku as Kogi APC stalwarts who were decamping to the PDP at the rally. “At the cusp of being impeached, he pleaded to be allowed to resign. He was obliged and he too left office and our party in 2019. Shortly, he decamped to the SDP, another rickety platform in Kogi State where his presence was as ineffectual as his departure was unfelt in the APC. We won the 2019 landslide without them. Since then, the two men have failed in their political self-delusions and have continued to fail.
