A Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kogi State and a former Senator who represented Kogi East at the beginning of the 4th Republic (1999-2003), Alex Kadiri, has expressed his concern, stating that it would be a tragedy if the APC wins the November 11, 2023, Kogi State governorship election, News About Nigeria reports.
Kadiri made these remarks while speaking with journalists in Abuja on Saturday.
He lamented his party’s performance in Kogi State over the last eight years, noting that it is a waste considering the declining quality of life for ordinary citizens.
According to him, the APC has not accomplished anything in the state during its eight years in power to deserve re-election.
In his words, “As we speak, my party is fielding a candidate to succeed Yahaya Bello. I think it will be a tragedy if my party wins the election on the 11th of this month. What have we done to justify being reelected?”
Kadiri also expressed his concerns about the state of the nation, emphasizing that the ruling All Progressives Congress does not prioritize the welfare of Nigerians.
The APC Chieftain further lamented the increased rate of insecurity in the state, which, in his opinion, the current administration has failed to address, yet they are producing successors.
He also alleged that the APC is now taking Nigerians for granted, as the system is now dominated by criminals in Nigeria.
Therefore, he warned leaders at various levels not to destroy the nation, expressing his hope to witness positive changes for Nigeria in the future.
