The secretary of the media and publicity committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Campaign Council in the forthcoming Kogi State governorship election, Dr Tom Ohikere has said ex-Senate President, Bukola Saraki is no longer as influential as he was to aid reconciliation within the Kogi state PDP and make the party successful.
Last week, the PDP National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus named the former Senate President chairman of a five-man reconciliation committee charged with the responsibility of reuniting GEJ and Idris with the PDP chapters in their respective home states.
Reacting, Secretary of the media and publicity committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Campaign Council, Tom Ohikere in a recent interview described Bukola Saraki’s task as an impossible mission.
His words, “What does Bukola Saraki know of Kogi politics, he never established any warm relationship with our people, even the state chapter of the PDP even when he was Senate President. What did the state chapter of the PDP benefit from him?
“Now all of a sudden they want the PDP in Kogi state to defer to him. A PDP that is desperately struggling to find its bearing amids a surge of defections and altercations.
“They seem lost. We know their defeat in the 2015 election is still reverberating in their affairs. They are short of notable and strong political personalities that can steer the party. If not how would they bring a man fastly dissipating into political obscurity to come and head their reconciliation just a month to election proper.”
“So I don’t think it will bring about any change in the political and electoral balance in Kogi state. Kogi State is APC and will remain so as long as we continue to pursue the general interest of our people. For now we are keeping to and delivering on our mandate, so there is no vacancy in lugard house”.
