Ahead of the November 21 gubernatorial election in Kogi State, a pressure group within the All Progressives Congress, Volunteer Network (AVN), said it has mobilised over 20, 0000 volunteers to canvas for the emergence of Senator Nicholas Ugbane as the party’s flag-bearer, and victory at the poll.
The state coordinator, Mr. Tony Akeje and the Secretary, Babtunde Oyejide, in a statement issued in Lokoja and made available to journalists, said if voted as governor, the Ugbane will among other things transform the state into an agrarian success, considering its huge agricultural potentials.
They said they were in Lokoja to mobilise the youths and the market men and women, to support Ugbane’s aspiration.
“Senator Ugbane was a two-time commissioner for education and served in different other ministries in the state. He is reputed the brains behind several notable achievements recorded in Kogi, and if elected as governor, he will do more.”
The advised voters to get it right this time around by rejecting money politics, as well as the do-or-die attitude of some of the politicians
