Governor Yahaya Bello has been called upon to embrace all members of All Progressives Congress, APC, in Kogi state.
The call was made by a party chieftain and former Media aide to Late Prince Abubakar Audu, Hon Abdulmalik Suleiman
He urged members of the APC in the state to put aside their differences and rally round governor Bello for the overall interest of the state.
Abdulmalik advised key stakeholders in the party to come together and work with the Governor so as to allow him move the state forward.
According to him, Bello needed the support of all to succeed and provide the much needed democracy dividend, warning that the state cannot afford to live in disunity based on primitive sentiments that have plagued the state in the past.
He added; “I am sure the governor wont disappoint the state, he will succeed and deliver, let us all be patient with him so that he can sort out things and provide everlasting solution.
“Gov Bello met a ruined system where there is no regard for accountability and transparency.
“The governor is determined to fix the state and put it in the parts of progress and development. So let us support him” he said.
He congratulated the governor for his victory at the Supreme Court and commended him for his brilliant victory speech, saying that the speech would go a long way in bring everybody to the fold.
The APC chieftain, who also congratulated Hon James Faleke and former governor Idris Wada, called on them to support the governor, who in his victory speech described them as his brothers.
