“The allegations against the state government and our party that we are sponsoring violence are reckless and untrue.”

“I have said before that I won’t play the ethnic card. I didn’t join the race because I am from a particular part of the state”

“My agenda is to develop the entire state and to provide quality leadership. This is in consonance with the dreams of all Kogites.”

“Since my emergence as the flag bearer of our great party, I have embarked on consultations with Kogi leaders across party lines. I have also embarked on reconciliatory moves to ensure we are all on the same page.”

“We have achievements to campaign with. I respect those who are contesting with me. But they know APC will win.”

“Kogites are interested in knowing if I can continue with the legacies of GYB. He has started landmark projects by building well-equipped schools and hospitals across the state.”

“He has started a robust Health Insurance Scheme that has made Medicare cheaper and more accessible. We have a framework in place.”

“We are emboldened by the plans we have and the gains of the past few years. Security is also very key, and Kogites are already used to a governor who sees security as the number one priority.”

“As the Auditor General for Local Councils, it is my responsibility to ensure that the councils comply with the Audit Law”

“Service to humanity is the number one motivation. I was brought up by my grandmother who taught me service to humanity.”

“I also served Kogi State under the leadership of my boss, mentor and leader, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, who further showed me, in practical terms, how to serve humanity using the platform of government.”

“Their blood will not be shed in vain. We will not rest until those behind this heinous crime are tracked down, apprehended, and brought to justice.”

“Our government shall hit the ground running with people-oriented projects that will focus on the wellbeing of our people”
