After the dismal outing of the All Progressives Congress in the Presidential and National Assembly election in Kogi West, the actual political worth of appointees from the senatorial district was exposed in contrast with the misleading impression the Governor was given.
For Kingsley Fanwo to urge the people of the state to dismiss the genuine concern of West Kogites on the plans of appointees in Okunland to unleash violence as “fake alert of violence” and another “ploy by the PDP to scare voters away from voting’, speaks volume about his lack of truthfulness.
Is it not in the same Kogi State that voters were subjected to intimidation and harassment by hoodlums at the behest of the State government? Were attempts not made by armed and masked men under the direction of the ADC to the Governor to prevent opposition candidates from entering the State on the eve of the Presidential and National Assembly election?
What could be the apt description of the violence experienced in Kogi East and Central in the last election?
To state that the peaceful manner the election was conducted and the outcome in Kogi West was discomforting to the State Government is the truth.
The juvenile reaction of the Governor to Okun appointees was equally disturbing thereby putting them under intense pressure that has pushed them to desperation to win at all cost.
To say the February 23 victory of PDP in Kogi West is pyrrhic and questionable confirms the need for Kingsley Fanwo to be urgently exorcised of a dominant lying demon that has taken over his soul.
Kingsley Fanwo continue to behave in an extreme and unacceptable way, and have very powerful penchant for lying that he cannot control.
For the avoidance of doubt, it is the militarization and violence peddled by the APC that has the potential to cause chaos and confusion in the State, if not stopped.
Working hard to deliver at all cost with the deployment of thugs and hoodlums is nothing but unhealthy, heinous and devious desperation to secure victory.
If Kingsley Fanwo knows what pyrrhic really means, he will not associate same to the well deserved victory of PDP in Kogi West that dazed the cocky APC beyond words and imagination.
Does Kingsley Fanwo think his promise of adequate security is reassuring considering the fact that suspects apprehended before election for violent conduct are now free courtesy, Kogi State Government?
How many persons have the security agencies arrested in the violence unleashed by hoodlums allegedly carrying out Kogi State governor instructions?
Kingsley Fanwo should just remind the Governor that, election is a celebration of democracy and not a theater of war with the hope that reason will be allowed to prevail.
Hon. Taofiq Isah, Ijumu Local Government Administrator has been strutting all over the place like a rabid canine threatening fire and brimstone due to fear of losing his job if he fails to win.
Sadly, others who ought to call him to order share his desperation. The Governor is pissed and Okun appointees are determined to do any and everything to be in his good book again. The morbid fear of losing their jobs have made many thrown caution to the winds.
As sure as day will break after each night, Kogi West, particularly Okunland will witness extreme violence during the election of 9th March, 2019 unless Governor Yahaya Bello calls his appointees to order.
Kogites are used to being deceived by their government but it is never too late to prove them wrong with a peaceful election come 9th March, 2019.
Kingsley Fanwo has over time gained notoriety for being a lying Evangelist with the flair for blatant falsehood purveying but a golden opportunity to be truthful for once is now; it is hoped he will grab it.
