Yahaya Bello: I’ll deliver Kogi to APC in 2023

Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has pledged to deliver the state to the Al Progressive Congress (APC) in the 2023 general election.

Bello made the vow while speaking at the inauguration of 46 vehicles distributed to the campaign coordinators, local government chairmen of APC and other critical stakeholders for Tinubu/Shetima Campaign at the Government house in Lokoja, the Kogi State capital, on Wednesday.

The vehicles were donated by the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Murtala Ajaka, to facilitate free movement for the stakeholders to campaign for the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, in Kogi State.

Bello, who was represented by his Chief of Staff, Abdulkareem Asuku, stated that the APC has done well in Kogi State and was determined to win the election and deliver Kogi to Tinubu in 2023.

The governor said the legacies of the present administration were obvious in the state, noting that the citizens will not want to go back to Egypt and rather work for the party.

He stated that over 3,000 foot soldiers will monitor the election in the 21 local government areas of Kogi State.

On his part, Ajaka said the rational behind the donation was borne by the fact that the campaign council must penetrate the grassroots for the presidential election.

He stated that the vehicles were donated to the 21 local government areas of Kogi State to enable the chairmen to kickstart campaigns.

He pledged that more vehicles would be donated to women and youths in the state, saying: “This is a project in which every one must participate and campaign for APC in all elections in 2023.”
