Governor Usman Ododo of Kogi State has stated that the approach adopted by his administration to governance has endeared Kogi people to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He noted that he remains fully loyal to the APC and committed to promoting its manifesto through purposeful and people-centered governance in Kogi State.
The Governor stated this on Friday during his official visit to the national secretariat of the party.
The Governor appreciated the national chairman of the party, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, and members of the National Working Committee for their dedication, hard work, and strategic leadership.
He also lauded President Bola Tinubu for his bold and transformative policies, which he said are already reshaping the national economy and laying the foundation for long-term prosperity.
“It’s with a deep sense of gratitude and purpose that I stand before you today to express my appreciation to our great party, the APC, for the unwavering support you have shown me, not only during my electioneering journey but also in my service as the Chief Servant of Kogi State.
“The confidence reposed in me by the party and its leadership has not only inspired my commitment to serve with humility and excellence, it has also reinforced my resolve to uphold the ideals and vision of our great party.
“Our administration in Kogi has adopted the principle of servant leadership, and this has resonated deeply with our people.” Ododo said.
According to him, in just 14 months, they’ve made significant strides, from stabilising security architecture, to boosting agricultural productivity, to driving infrastructural development and expanding access to social services across the state.
“These modest but impactful achievements have strengthened the credibility of our party and deepened public trust in our government.”
He added, “Our inclusive governance model, which prioritises youth and women participation in leadership, is yielding great dividends. We’ve created a new generation of decision-makers, infused fresh ideas into governance, and given hope to a large number of our population.
“This approach has further endeared the APC to the people of Kogi State and positioned us strongly for an even better performance in the 2027 general elections.
“I must extend my heartfelt appreciation to the National Chairman of our great party, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, and members of the National Working Committee. Your dedication, hard work, and strategic leadership have solidified the APC as the party of choice among Nigerians across all divides.
“We’re also grateful to our National Leader and President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, for his bold and transformative policies that are already reshaping our national economy and laying the foundation for long-term prosperity. Mr. President’s unwavering support to Kogi State is not taken for granted, and I assure him of our unflinching loyalty and massive support in 2027 and beyond.”
He further stated, “It takes a bold heart like that of Mr. President to take tough but necessary decisions especially as they affect the petroleum sector and our monetary policies. His decisions are in the overall best interest of our dear nation. I am confident that the people of Nigeria will file behind Mr President for a resounding victory come 2027. His patriotic actions will earn him a second term as we are all ready to ensure victory for him in order to continue to put Nigeria on the path of greatness and Renewed Hope.
“Once again, I thank you, Distinguished Senator Ajibola Bashiru for your kind attention and warm reception.”
