Well, I live by the day and somehow leave my next line of action or ambition to God, I remain a very committed party man, in politics by call. I can honestly restate that I came into politics by call, I left a very lucrative job as CEO Dabah Homes Ltd and with vast knowledge of politics that is full of uncertainty, I voluntarily dumped my job and not sacked. This part of me was not well known, but that is the basic fact. I am not in politics to make money or fame but to serve my people. That I did not win the last election is not the end of the life, I shall remain in politics and would humbly submit myself to the will of God and to answer to that communal call of my people anytime.
The post to seek in the nearest future also depends very much on God and my people. I see myself as the chief servant of Kogi State. I am qualified for any political post and ready to serve in any capacity as it may please God. My people are now wiser. I feel for my people I know they are daily regretting, I lived with them and we interact daily, so I can see much regrets in the land. He added.
Only an over ambitious politician would be talking of 2019 election in 2017, God is the deciding factor and to him I shall leave my next line of action but certainly I shall humbly offer myself to serve my people anytime and any day. Be it House of Rep’s, senate or governor, I am qualified.
It is not palatable news at all, our leaders are not united, they are finding it difficult to manage success, the fortunate ones are full of egos and forgetting the past so easy, well, I guess it is because we are mostly strangers on the same rescue boat, we hurriedly came together because we have a common enemy and without terms and conditions. These crises are making nonsense of the like of me who is feeling neglected already. We don’t even know whom to turn to. It is very bad, this is a party that many of us nearly lost our lives, I was the first to climbed mass gate in our attempt to protect the biggest catch to our party, here I am, watching from far how those I toasted to this party  been considered better than I do. This and many others are lessons of life!
We are all brothers and sisters birthed from the womb of one Kogi.  Yes, we have challenges but we will surely overcome. Kogi is our state. Kogi is blessed. We will all collectively protect, defend and develop this state for ourselves, and our children.
For me, whatever happened in the election I have accepted it in good faith.
You can lose today and win tomorrow but anybody that dies in the process can’t be revived again. While looking for political offices, we must conduct ourselves in a way that will not halt the lives of innocent people.
– Hon. Okutepa Danladi Usman
