The Kogi State Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Dino Melaye, has said the party stands remains the party to beat in the upcoming elections because of the level of devastation being left behind by the outgoing All Progressives Congress administration.
He said this after a meeting of Kogi PDP stakeholders from the three Senatorial zones of the state, with the Members of the National Working Committee at the party‘s National Secretariat, in Abuja, on Wednesday.
Melaye said, “PDP is going to win the election in Kogi State because we have never had it so bad in the history of Kogi State.
“Our people were impoverished, salaries have not been paid, pensions have not been paid, gratuity has not been paid, the health sector is non-existent, in fact, all the General Hospitals in the state are mere consulting clinics.

The special adviser to President Bola Tinubu on media and publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, has said military intervention is “not off the table” as the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) seeks to ensure that democratic rule returns to Niger Republic.
Ngelale revealed this during an interview with Al Jazeera on Tuesday evening.
He was reacting to concerns that Niger’s junta had defied the ECOWAS deadline.
ECOWAS had threatened the use of force if the junta does not comply with the deadline which elapsed on Sunday.
Ngelala noted that the additional sanctions on Niger are proof that the commission is focused on a diplomatic approach before resorting to the use of force as a last option.

Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Comrade Timi Frank, has urged the United States to cause Nigeria’s President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to release his Chicago State University academic records to a court in Nigeria.
He said this would help douse tension and clear doubts, adding that it would also be in the spirit of reciprocity and freedom of information obtainable in the United States of America.
In a statement he sent to DAILY POST on Wednesday, he called on President Tinubu to cooperate in allowing his acclaimed Chicago State University to release his academic records if he has nothing to hide.
