Kogi Guber: APC wasted resources, mankind, can’t win November 11 election – Senator Kadiri
Former Senator representing Kogi East Senatorial District, Alex Usman Kadiri has declared that the All Progressives Congress, APC has wasted resources and mankind in the State, hence, cannot win the Governorship election.
The APC Chieftain said, it would be a tragedy if the APC wins the Kogi State governorship election scheduled for November 11, 2023.
Kadiri, a prominent figure in Kogi State’s APC, shared his thoughts during an interview with journalists in Abuja on Saturday.
According to him, Kadiri criticized the APC’s performance in Kogi State over the past eight years, describing it as a waste, with the quality of life for ordinary citizens steadily declining. He emphasized the prevalence of violence, shootings, and killings in the state and the apparent lack of arrests or law enforcement responses.
Kadiri said, “Where are we going in this country? The thing that pained my heart is what is going on in Kogi State. I have said it openly at the APC national secretariat, I have said it in press releases and the party does not care.
“As we are talking, my party is fielding a candidate to succeed Yahaya Bello. I think it will be a tragedy if my Party wins the election on the 11th of this Month. What have we done to justify being reelected?
“What we have is bloodshed, shooting, killings left right and center and all the security are just looking, nothing, nobody has been arrested or apprehended.
“No gun has been retrieved or recovered. Before they used to shoot in the night but now they shoot in broad daylight, nobody is apprehended, people are dying and we want to say we have won election on that platform and you ask people to go to the Tribunal, which tribunal?
“I think this party is taking Nigerians for granted too much. It is unfair, we have not conquered Nigeria, Nigerians are being treated like conquered people.
“Unfortunately with this system that we have, criminals are in charge left right, and center. Criminals have all the means, they have all the funds. I think it is not right, this country is dying slowly, please do not kill it. I want to be alive to see things change for the better but things are getting worse, getting extremely bad while I am still watching.”
He acknowledged Senator Natasha Akpoti Uduaghan for her tenacious pursuit of her stolen mandate and her determination to fight for her rightful victory in the election.
Kadiri concluded by stating the need for Nigeria to move toward a more positive and less violent future, expressing concern about the worsening situation in the country.
