Speaker of the Kogi State House Assembly, Hon. Matthew Kolawale called on all aggrieved members of APC in Kogi West to sheathe their swords and work together with Governor Bello to move the state forward. He assured them that APC has internal mechanisms to resolve all issues.
Kolawole, while moving the motion for the endorsement of President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Yahaya Bello for second term in office, said “the two leaders, to the best of my knowledge have done well to be re-elected in 2019.”
The motion was seconded by the State Assembly Member from Ijumu Local Government Area of the state, Hon. Victor Omofaye. The motion was adopted by Senator Adeyemi.
In his response, Governor Bello said his adoption was not as important as the endorsement of President Buhari.
“I am one of your own and you know what I have done and what I am still doing for the state. The adoption of President Buhari for second tenure in office is the most important thing for the state and the nation in general.
“We thank God for restoring the health of President Muhammadu Buhari. He has been winning and will win again in 2019. What happened here in Kabba today is the beginning of the endorsement of Buhari for 2019.
“Nobody can stop the President from winning. Buhari has been endorsed by Allah. Nobody can remove him, his leadership is from God and nobody can fight God,” he said.
