Smart Adeyemi , a former senator representing Kogi West, has threatened to work against his party, the All Progressives Congress ( APC), if governor Yahaya Bello is denied a second term ticket.
Adeyemi spoke at a stakeholders’ forum held at the party’s state secretariat in Lokoja, the state capital, on Thursday.
He told a delegation from the Progressive Governors Forum which included the Kebbi State Governor, Alhaji Atiku Bagudu; Yobe State Governor, Alhaji Maimala Buni; and the immediate past governor of Bauch State, Alhaji Mohammed Abubakar, to take the message back to the party’s national secretariat that they should give the party’s ticket to Bello for continuity.
Adeyemi said, “We in Kogi State have seen a young, vibrant and detribalised personality in Governor Bello and we have unanimously resolved to work for his re-election come November 16.”
