The Kogi State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) yesterday distanced itself from the current leadership crisis rocking the state House of Assembly.
APC state chairman Alhaji Haddy Ametuo in a statement issued in Abuja yesterday, voiced the party’s readiness to hit the ground running as soon as it took over power from the Peoples Democratic Party PDP on January 27 because the task ahead was ‘very enormous’.
“As far as we are concerned, we have no interest or hand in the crisis in the House of Assembly. After all, the PDP even has the majority. So, our political detractors should not link us with their actions or inactions.
Instead of linking the governor-elect, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, to their inability to manage the House, we urge them to look inwards and search their ‘cupboards’,” he advised.
Ametuo also cautioned against thuggery or unnecessary celebration the day of inauguration, and advised residents of Kogi Central Senatorial District against ‘over-celebration.
“I enjoin the people of the state to be law-abiding. Security operatives are on alert to pick anyone who foments trouble. Traditional masquerades would not also be allowed anywhere near the event. We must all conduct and comport ourselves accordingly,” he further advised.
