A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Kogi State, Comrade Alfa Fidelis has advised the governor of the state, Yahaya Bello to start moving his personal belongings out of the government house as his reelection bid would hit the rock.
Alfa who is also a Chairmanship aspirant of the party in the state said even the alleged militarization approach of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) during the election will be resisted by the people by kicking out Gov. Yahaya Bello from office through ballot on November 2.
Speaking at the PDP secretariat in Lokoja on Tuesday when he came to declare his intention to vie for the position, said the party was overwhelmed by militancy, thuggery and rigging deployed by the ruling APC in the last general election.
“It is an obvious fact that the last election was militarized. I also want to say that the PDP did not have someone who could stand and fight for them.
“If I become the party’s chairman, I will fill in that gap and fight for the party, stand for the party and I will not allow anybody to bring in thugs to chase our people away, kill and maim them.”
“We have looked at the happenings around the State and it is very appalling and there is something inside of me to steer the party to have a new party in the state.
“If you look at the PDP in the state it looks like there is no opposition party in the state. So, one of my first obligations is to give the party members the confidence with programs lined when we come on board.
“Let me give you an instance, in Kogi State the PDP does not even have a secretariat, they just have a place politicians come use to win election and after they win they abandoned it.
