Mr James Faleke, who was running mate to the late Prince Abubakar Audu in the Nov. 21 Kogi Governorship election, has vowed to reclaim the mandate of the people of the state given freely to the APC during the election.
Faleke who has been picked as the substitute for the late Abubakar Audu, made this assertion while addressing hundreds of APC supporters in Lokoja on Monday.
Quoting a section of the constitution while picking Mohammed Audu as his running mate, he pointed out that attempts to snatch power from the reins of the APC in Kogi State were fruitless as the party is poised to chart a new course for the state.
He explained that there is no contention between him and the immediate political family of late Abubakar Audu and described the task ahead as a moral burden on him to fight on, till the victory of APC is accomplished.
Going back to the primary election conducted on August 28, 2015, he noted that he remained the only person holding on to the votes cast for the APC.
Some APC leaders from the three senatorial districts of the state were present as Mr Faleke made his decision known to his supporters.
Meanwhile, in another development,it is reported that supporters of James Faleke and Yahaya Bello clash at the party’s secretariat in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.
The party’s National Working Committee members, reporters and visitors at the secretariat have been held hostage by feuding youths.
Bello is being pushed by some leaders of the party to take the governorship ticket, having taken part in all processes during the primaries of the party.
The feuding youths are said to be hauling stones at the secretariat building and passers-by. (Source: Channels tv)
