Ignore Divisive Tendencies — Yahaya Bello To APC Guber Aspirants

The Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello has advised governorship aspirants under the umbrella of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to shun divisive tendencies ahead of the primary election in April.

The advice was given on Saturday in a statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Communications in the state, Kingsley Fanwo.

While warning that divisive tendencies could jeopardise the interest of the party and undermine its peace and unity, Bello expressed confidence in APC winning with a wide margin in November.

“The attention of Bello has been drawn to a series of publications on the suspension or not of a member of the APC in Kogi, Hon. Murtala Yakubu.

“The governor, as the leader of our great party in Kogi, warns against bickerings that can undermine the peace and unity that the APC has been known for under his leadership.

”The governor has,  therefore,  directed all aspirants in the forthcoming governorship primaries in the state to focus on their strengths in wooing party members and refrain from divisive tendencies in the interest of the party.

“Our party will ensure a fair playing ground for the best candidate to emerge in the primary election and together we shall win the governorship election, with a wide margin, in November.

“Governor Yahaya Bello wishes all aspirants successful screening”, the statement reads.
