The media team of Leke Abejide the governorship candidate of African Democratic Congress (ADC) has slammed the Kogi State Commissioner for Information, Kingsley Femi Fanwo over his recent comment against Hon. Leke Abejide.
Reacting to Fanwo’s tirades alleging that Abejide was just a “WAEC Fee Politician”, the media team said the commissioner suffers political myopia and analytical bigotry.
In a statement issued in Lokoja on Friday, Abejide’s media team said “Fanwo has been hiding his shamelessness under frivolous lies for the government for the last few years.”

The statement said Fanwo’s “infamous attacks at Leke Abejide is because his political party candidate does not possess national and grassroots acceptance like Leke Abejide.”
“Abejide possesses wider political acceptance than the APC candidate who is only known for the key role of suffering Kogi state workers in the state during the last 7 years of the government, the people are also conscious that Ododo is Yahaya’s third term agenda to further wreck Kogi State and protect his boss from being accountable for all the havoc caused in the state.
“It is quite understandable that since Fanwo lost during the last primary election, he has continued to display sheer lunacy showcasing an unstable mind shrouded in darkness. As he continued to exhibit the lack of intellect to effectively communicate his ideas (if he has any) or lucidly demonstrate his logic given the proven anarchical bent of his mind, one can, therefore, better understand some of the wild, unsubstantiated and reckless allegations he has against Leke Abejide.”
The campaign media team said Fanwo’s statement showed clearly that the government is making efforts to frame Abejide up, attack him, and arrest him as well.
“He admits that the government is making efforts to attack Abejide.
“In his recent comment, he made a futile bid to denigrate the character and tarnish the image of Leke Abejide which simply makes it clear that the Government of Kogi State is in serious disarray considering the court order in favor of Abejide of ADC, as the court ordered that Abejide should be protected by the DSS and Police from being arrested.
“He admits that Abejide’s WAEC payment in the last 7 years is part of the state government’s responsibility but the government failed woefully in living up to it’s responsibility.
“He successfully admits that Leke withstood all assaults from the state government and remained the only alliance the people saw and hoped for a better Kogi State.”
The media team said Fanwo could not also deny that Abejide remains the best candidate that can fix Kogi state after all the damages the government has inflicted on the people through their autocratic rule in the state.
“He even admits that Abejide at this material time is morally and tactically higher and more qualified than his party’s candidate.
“Today, the state sits on the lowest rungs of development indices, the Local Governments have been paralyzed while the government sees anyone who speaks against all the ill activities of the government as an enemy. While the state suffers epileptic symptoms in the hands of these flunked individuals.
“Kogites have in all ways rejected the candidate of APC in the state. The choice of whether to continue along this trajectory or to seek a new course is no longer a matter of debate.”
The media team counseled Fanwo to go back to the drawing board and x-ray Kogi state under Bello, stressing that “their continuous attacks and plot to arrest Abejide will not save them from the doom looming to fall on them come November 11, 2023.”
