Ahead of the November 2023 Governorship Poll in Kogi State, the Fulanis in the state have declared total support for the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Ahmed Usman Ododo.

The leaders of the Fulanis said they have embarked on door-to-door campaigns across all the Local Government Areas in the state to mobilise support for the candidate and the party.

At Gegu Beki in Kogi LGA, Friday , the leader of the Fulanis, Dr Nuhu Jaililu passed a vote of confidence on the leadership of Governor Yahaya Bello, expressing appreciation to the Governor for his support to law abiding Fulanis in the State.

He said “over the years, the Governor has protected every resident in Kogi State, including the Fulanis, saying the only way to pay him back is to vote for Ododo and APC in the November 11, 2023 election massively”.

“The Governor has shown capacity to provide security and protection for everyone residing in Kogi State. What he doesn’t condone is criminality and we support him 100% on that. We will continue to be law abiding as well as support the Governor’s security policies.

“For someone who stood by those of us that are law abiding and contributing to the economy of the state, we will repay him with our votes on November 11 and Insha Allah, Ododo will be victorious. All of us across the twenty one Local Government Areas are united in supporting the Governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress”.

Hon. Dauda thanked them on behalf of the leadership of the party, urging them to continue to be law abiding and peaceful in their conduct.

He said Kogi State will continue to be home to everyone who believes in unity, peace and development.
