As the journey to 2019 general election draws nearer, a team of former students leaders paid a surprise visit to the Kogi West leading senatorial aspirant, Omoluabi Bode Adeyemi (OBA) and presented him with a PDP senatorial intent form they purchased for him.
This was revealed during a brief form presentation ceremony done in his office in Abuja on Thursday.
Speaking on behalf of others present, a former Kogi Students leader in the University of Ibadan, Comrade Otitoleke Richard said they are motivated to take this unprecedented step as a result of Omoluabi’s antecedents in student unionism, youth mentorship, political advocacy and proven leadership acumen.
In his words, Otitoleke said, “I have been an ardent follower and fan of Omoluabi in the last two decades and I can unequivocally say that you are a born leader, true democrat and a man with vast legislative experience, given your years of experience in the National Assembly. I am therefore convinced just like my colleagues that you will return good representation to Kogi West and Nigeria.”
In his response, the obviously non-expectant but elated Omoluabi promised not let them down when elected. He said that he is ready to give his all to see that good representation returns to Kogi West.
He however assured PDP party faithfuls and other contestants that he will do anything within the legal framework to institutionalize internal democracy in Kogi West and ensure that rule of law and transparency is enthroned in the process of the party primary election as against the rumour of non existent automatic ticket flying around.
He also promised to be the face and advocate of youth emancipation and political development in Nigeria.
