Kogi West: Tribunal Will give us back our mandate- PDP Youth Leader

It is no longer news that both tribunal and appeal court judgement that nullified the hard won victory of distinguished Senator Dino Melaye was as a result of an error committed by officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission. I wonder why the Peoples decisions will be subverted as a result of mistakes of the electoral umpire.

When the re-run election was fixed along with Kogi State gubernatorial poll, the good people of Kogi West were still ready to stick to their choice unfortunately the powers that be were hell bent on denying the people of their choice through the instrumentality of INEC, The Nigerian Police, Fake Police, Thugs and the most worrisome aspect that has generated a lot of controversy is the use of Helicopter to disrupt voting in Lokoja, the state capital.

Furthermore, the political robbery that took place in Kogi West will not stand as we are going to use every lawful means to get our stolen mandate. Distinguished Senator Dino Melaye has carved a niche for himself politically and has thus become a household name both within and outside Nigeria.

Let me also use this medium to once again condemn the absurdity perpetrated by APC leaders in Kabba Community before and during the election. The attack on PDP leaders and her supporters is rather unfortunate and speaks volumes of the kind of people we live with. I hope they will also find time to retrieve the guns given to thugs as failure to do so will eminently lead to social vices in no distant time.

I want to appreciate Bunu APC leaders and most importantly my very good friend Hon. Tolorunleke Moses, Kabba/Bunu LGA Administrator for their conduct before and during the election because it's a known fact that no single opposition leader was attacked in Bunu Kingdom. These are people who benefited mostly from the supposed new direction government but never allowed themselves to be used against their brothers.

Special appreciation to my leaders Hon. Abayomi Bello and Arch. Salman Idris for their support. My appreciation will be incomplete if I failed to express my profound gratitude to the ever ready Kabba/Bunu PDP Youths for standing through thick and thin with our party. You guys are wonderful. May God Almighty reward your labor of love.

Emmanuel Oluwakayode D.
PDP Youth Leader,
Kabba/Bunu LGA.
