'Current administration is a disgrace to APC', Ex-Campaign DG

The Director General for Governor Yahaya Bello campaign in the 2015 All Progressives Congress, APC party primary election in Kogi State, Dr. Yakubu Ugwolawo has begged the Igala nation to forgive him for fielding the governor to his people, saying, "the current administration in the State is a disgrace to the ruling All Progressives Congress".

Dr. Ugwolawo stated this on Saturday June 15 at the sensitization meeting  of APC Justice Forum held in Ankpa.

The former campaign DG who led 407 Igala delegates to vote for Governor Bello against his opponent late Prince Abubabar Audu lamented that the last three  years of his administration is a disappointment to the Igala race.

He further warned that it will be disastrous to field the incumbent governor to fly the APC ticket in the November 16th governorship election, adding that his appointment so far has been lopsided.

" Am using this medium to apologize to the entire Igala nation for fielding Alhaji Bello in 2015 primary which made him the first runner up to our late leader Prince Abubakar Audu. I regret supporting him. Please forgive me. I regret my action for leading 407 Igala delegates to vote against our own brother. So far, Bello's performance showed that, he does not mean well for our people".

The spokesperson of APC Justice Forum, Mr. Goodman Akwu while expressing his regret over  the failure of the party by Bello led government maintained that the governor is championing the slogan of new direction by impoverishing the people with hunger, poverty, non payments of salary and death.

He said the forum is to restore life to APC and to ensure that the APC adopt direct primary election in the forthcoming APC party primary.

"Governor Bello from available records has collected over 335 billion naira. We have this records from the office of the auditor general and ministry of finance. We also learnt that he has hide huge amount of money to persecute his reelection bid. So, we must stand against this because his government is anti people. If I were to be him, I will bow out because he has failed the young generation. Bello who happened to be an opportunist  worked against the APC when he lost the primary against our late leader. He came into power by accident, and now the State is bleeding since he assumed office. Who ever that is amplifying Bello's 'Enemuneme' slogan from Kogi East is a disappointment to Igala race" he added.

Our Kogi State Correspondent reports that those present at the meeting were APC governorship aspirants, former Nigeria Football Federation, NFF President, Sanni Lulu, Yusuf Maiyanga, Mona Audu, and representative of other aspirants from Kogi East.
