The people of the West and Central Senatorial Districts of Kogi State is not relenting in their effort to ensure that an Okun or Ebira ascend the Lugard House seat of government for another four years.
However, feelers from Kogi East, where more than 15 aspirants have indicated interest to run, does not suggest that the Igala are ready to concede. Reacting to the publication titled “Comrade Adams Oshiomhole Hits The Public Arena With Another Painful Truth Again” which source credited to “Network News of Radio Nigeria”, the MPSC said the statement could not have emanated from Oshiomhole, noting that “the authors and their sponsors failed woefully in their attempt to put words in the mouth of the APC national chairman”.
“Kogi East is made up of three axis such as: Ankpa axis, comprises of Ankpa, omala, olamaboro Local Government Areas. Dekina axis comprises of Dekina, Bassa Local Government Areas. Idah axis, comprises of Idah, Igalamela, Ofu, Ibaji Local Government Areas. Dekina axis has taken the senate seat of Kogi East east with our ticket in the just concluded senatorial elections. Ankpa axis has held the state governorship for 9 years with Ibrahim Idris under PDP.
“If the incumbent is considered unsuitable against the backdrop of his well-established abysmal records and antecedents, why wouldn’t the party enable the process that would culminate in the emergence of another candidate from Kogi Central zone to complete the second of the four year term for that zone, under the accidental shift of the zoning arrangement from the hitherto dominant Kogi East senatorial zone occasioned by the demise of former Governor Abubakar Audu during the 2015...
“It’s unfortunate that the Central and the West are always unable to come together as a bloc to wrestle power from the dominance of the East, despite commanding superior number of local government areas-12 against 9; superior number of electoral wards-140 against 99. Suffices to say that out of the nine local governments in Kogi East, the Igala could only count on seven local governments-Idah, Olamaboro, Dekina, Igalamela-Odolu, Omala, Ankpa and Ofu.
