South-South Residents in Kogi Endorse Ododo for 2027
Residents of South-South extraction living in Kogi State have pledged to deliver over 60,000 votes for Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo in the upcoming 2027 governorship election. This commitment was made during a courtesy visit to Ododo in Lokoja by representatives from the six South-South states: Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Cross River, Delta, Edo, and Rivers.
The delegation, led by spokesperson Abu Michael, described the visit as unprecedented. They received backing from Edo State Governor Senator Monday Okpebholo and APC Chairman Jarret Tenebe.
The group praised Ododo’s performance during the APC primary and the 2023 governorship election, highlighting his achievements in healthcare, education, and workers' welfare. They noted the construction of over 110 Primary Healthcare Centres and the renovation of more than 500 public schools.
Governor Ododo responded by affirming his commitment to inclusive governance and thanked the South-South community for their support, emphasizing his administration's dedication to delivering democratic dividends.
