Senatorial candidate for Kogi West in the 2023 general elections, Barr. Abdulrahman Ozi, has collapsed his structures and moved his loyalists in the district to the All Progressives Congress.
Ozi, who was the minority leader in Kogi State House of Assembly from 2007 to 2011, and represented Kogi Koton Karfe State Constituency, said he was collapsing his entire SDP structure in the West to support the governorship candidate of the APC, Usman Ododo.
The former SDP senatorial candidate noted that having analysed all the candidates of the various political parties, including the SDP, he had come to the conclusion that Ododo had the competence and will to govern the state and build on the achievements of Governor Yahaya Bello.
He commended Bello for providing purposeful leadership and unprecedented infrastructure in the state.
Ododo, while welcoming Ozi to APC and promised to consolidate on the achievements of his mentor, Governor Bello.
He opined that the former SDP chieftain had made the right choice in the interest of the state.
He, therefore charged Kogites to ensure that Kogi State remained on the path of growth and national reckoning by voting for APC en masse in the November 11 governorship election.
