“As Director-General of the APC Gubernatorial Campaign Council, I have always been confident in the capacity of Governor Ododo to deliver the dividends of democracy in Kogi State. I want to use this opportunity to urge the opposition party, the SDP to come together and work with the Governor for the development of our dear state. Let everyone sheath their swords irrespective of their political, ethnic and religious differences, and give the governor all the support he needs to attain great success.
“I also want to congratulate our great party, the APC, for upholding its mandate in Kogi State. This is also a victory for the APC,” Audu stated.
Prince Audu also urged Governor Ododo to extend a hand of fellowship to the opposition party and work doubly hard to deliver on his campaign promises to the people of Kogi State while commending him on his achievements in his first 100 days in office.
