I wish to react to the article titled as above, published by an online news blog named “THE LEAKAGES” and dated 28th May, 2018.
I wish to state emphatically that the article was ill-conceived by enemies of the NEW DIRECTION GOVERNMENT with the primary aim of instigating disaffection and mistrust between the Rt. Hon. Speaker, Prince Kolawole, HE Alh Yahaya Bello, Chief of Staff to HE, Distinguished Sen. Smart Adeyemi, my humble self, and other members of KSHA. This is not only demonic, it is politics taken too far as such a plot never existed in reality, but probably in the imagination and wishful thinking of the author of the article.
I further wish to state as follows:-
I. That Rt.Hon. Speaker of Kogi State House of Assembly, Prince Kolawole, enjoys the support and confidence of myself and all other members of the KSHA.
II. That he equally enjoys the support, trust and confidence of the Executive Arm and every major political stakeholder in APC Kogi State, Dist.Sen. Smart Adeyemi inclusive.
III. That my 2019 aspiration remains as declared, to represent the good people of Kabba-Bunu/Ijumu at the Federal House of Representatives, that I remain committed to the aspiration, that it remains the moral right of Ijumu to produce the next House of Rep Member by 2019 when Hon Teejay Yusuf would be completing his eight-year (8) representation as the first to enjoy a 2nd Term under an age-long rotational arrangement between the two Local Govts of Ijumu and Kabba-Bunu. That the 2019 House of Rep aspiration of Ijumu is beyond me, that I therefore lack the capacity to trade it off for any position.
IV. That the Senatorial aspiration of my leader, Dist.Sen. Smart Adeyemi involves Seven (7) Local Goverment Areas of Kogi West and therefore has nothing directly or indirectly to do with our zoning arrangement of Kabba-Bunu/Ijumu House of Representatives slot.
V. That my co-aspirants for the 2019 HoR of Kabba-Bunu extraction should consider it a great privilege and gesture from GYB to have our brother, Rt.Hon. Prince Kolawole holding the number three position in Kogi State, he is doing well and deserves all our support to continue to deliver satisfactorily on that assignment. This is what is morally right, rather than attempting to discredit him because of 2019 or 2023, a bird at hand is worth a thousand in the forest.
VI. That I’m not aware of any plot to “force me to abort” my 2019 House of Representatives aspiration as claimed by the author.
VII. That all the members of Kogi State House of Assembly remain united under the leadership of Rt.Hon. Prince Kolawole and all other Principal Officers of the House, this includes myself as the Chief-Whip, there is no threat of impeachment, removal or whatever as wrongly insinuated by the author.
God bless Kogi State!
Signed:-
Chief (Hon) Victor Adewale Omofaiye,
Chief-Whip, KSHA,
Aspirant, HoR 2019, Kabba-Bunu/Ijumu Federal Constituency.
