President Bola Tinubu has appealed to all candidates participating in the November 11 gubernatorial elections in Bayelsa, Imo, and Kogi States, as well as the electorate to ensure free and fair elections.
The President made the appeal at the presentation of the All Progressives’ Congress flags to the standard-bearers in the upcoming elections.
He presented the party flags to Timipre Sylva for Bayelsa State; Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State, who is seeking a second-term in office, and Ahmed Usman Ododo for Kogi State.
The President expressed optimism about the party’s chances of victory in the off-season elections, which he says is a result of the hard work and records of the candidates, as well as the collective efforts of party officials, members of the APC National Working Committee, and the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje.
He said “I want to thank the Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, who is working hard to ensure a handover to our candidate, Usman Ododo. We are happy to have Hope Uzodinma, the great hope of our party and chairman of the Progressives Governors Forum. Thank you for the good job you are doing”.
The APC National Chairman commended the President for endorsing the candidates and for taking time out of his busy schedule to present the flags to them.
