President-elect, Bola Tinubu, has urged the people of Kogi to vote for the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the coming governorship election, thereby endorsing the party’s candidate, Ododo Usman.
Tinubu tasked the people on Saturday while playing host to Governors Yahaya Bello, who paid him a courtesy visit at the Defence House.
Bello was in the company of Usman, who he presented to President Muhammadu Buhari a few days ago.
This is despite a suit at the Federal High Court against the primary election which produced Usman.
Adeyemi accused Bello of imposing his first cousin on the party and vowed not to recognize the purported primary election.
But party leadership have queued behind Usman with Tinubu endorsing his candidacy just as Buhari and the party’s National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, had done.
Tinubu used the occasion of the meeting to say Kogi, which has been a stronghold of the party, must remain so in the coming election.
