The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Kogi, on Thursday said the party is presenting the most sellable candidate in the November11 governorship election in the state.

Speaking at a news conference on Thursday in Lokoja, the spokesperson for Ilonah/Bawa APGA Campaign Council in Kogi, Mr Aliyu Ibrahim, said the party’s candidate remained the  most qualified and suitable among others.

According to him, Ilonah is a man of capacity and has the ability to harness the fortunes of Kogi to create jobs for the teeming unemployed youths, noting that he can also provide quality functional education with improved Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) in the state.

“Our  candidate  has capacity, he is a man of integrity, and competent to bring the desired development to Kogi.“Ilonah is the most sellable among all other candidates presented by other political parties,” Ibrahim said.

He also assured that APGA government in Kogi would not rely on monthly allocations from the Federal Government to develop the state if voted to power.

The spokesperson further emphasised that the party was adequately prepared for the governorship election, as he urged the electorate to come out enmasse to cast their votes for APGA.

He explained that Kogi has huge challenges of unemployment, infrastructure deficit, youth restiveness, and  low IGR that required urgent solutions.

“The rate of unemployment is very high in Kogi with prevalent poverty which must be urgently addressed. “The citizens are suffering in the midst of plenty; Kogi is richly endowed with human and mineral resources.

“If elected as Kogi governor come November, our administration is poised to change the narratives within the shortest period,” he said.

He therefore stressed that APGA administration would explore several other avenues to avoid waiting for monthly allocations, saying youth empowerment would be the party’s focal point.

The spokesperson, therefore, urged  the electorate to chose wisely and vote for Ilonah/Bawa APGA ticket in the coming election in the state.
