The Kogi East Critical Stakeholders have called on their kinsmen to stop burning properties and killing their people, adding that they should emulate the people of Kogi Central and West.
Speaking during a press conference yesterday to endorse the Social Democratic Party (SDP) candidate Murtala Ajaka, the leader of the group, who is also the immediate Past Deputy Governor of Kogi State, Simon Achuba, said since they have all endorsed Ajaka, Kogi East people must remain peaceful.
“We are here with our supporters after consultation and effort to take over power from the APC, they discovered that Alhaji Murtala Ajaka is ahead and more ready to win the November 11 election.
“We came to this decision to give full support to Ajaka not because we are dreaming by the indices of politics. It is because of the reality on the ground. We are calling on the Kogi People to unite with us and rescue Kogi from misrule,” Achuba said, adding that they want to make sure that what is not good is removed for the good of the people.
He said anyone identifying with the government and saying that the government is not doing well should have a rethink and take their stand now, adding that Ajaka is well ahead of every candidate.
