The Director General on Media and Publicity to Kogi State Governor, Kingsley Fanwo has delivered the much needed electoral victory for the President Muhammadu Buhari and other candidates of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in his polling unit and Takete Ide / Otafun Ward 07 in Mopamuro local government area.
Fanwo’s feat is coming on the heels of electoral defeats faced by elected officers and political appointees across Okun land in Kogi West senatorial district.
The Speaker of the Kogi State House of Assembly, Prince Matthew Kolawole delivered his polling unit for APC but lost the ward. Other chieftains of the APC like the State Security Adviser, Commander Jerry Omodara (rtd); Commissioner for Finance, Alh. Idris Asiru, Commissioner for Industry, Chief Tolorunleke and a host of others lost their respective polling units.
In a tight and delicate Takete Ide/Otafun ward, Fanwo proved his mettle as a worthy ambassador of the party.
