SDP’s Muri Ajaka describes Ododo’s inauguration as interim setback for Kogi’s liberation

The people of Kogi State, should remain steadfast by not allowing themselves to be down cast because of the Saturday’s swearing in and inauguration of the Alhaji Usman Ododo as Governor of the State, the candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in November 2023 governorship elections, Alhaji Murtala Yakubu Ajaka, has admonished

Ajaka, in a statement by the party’s campaign Director of Communications, Faruk Adejoh-Audu, said the installation of Ododo is temporary setback in the struggle to liberate the people and ensure democracy prevails in the state.
He said hopelessness was not an option for Kogites at the moment when even the impostors are jittery that their heist has an impending expiry date.

“They have been engaged mutual accusations and allegations and counter allegations of treachery and disloyalty against senior members of the cabal and leaders of their own party.

“They have unleashed thugs to physically attack Senators and federal legislators in the hallowed confines of the State’s Government House.

“They have unleashed all manners of subterfuge, including violent attacks against statutory umpires and adjudicators of the democracy process.

“These can only be the behavior of electoral bandits. No one who legitimately won a prize will depress into nervous and aggressive conducts to preserve it,” Ajaka said.

The SDP candidate, who is challenging the results of the election at Governorship Elections Tribunal, admonished people the state to avail themselves of the time tested truism that no matter the fast strides of evil and falsehood, truth and justice, though slow and sluggish, will eventually overtake and prevail.

He charged Kogites to remain hopeful and peaceful while the party fights to retrieve their mandate from those who snatched it during the elections.
