The ‘Kogi State PDP Concerned Group’ has been described as a faceless by the ‘Credible PDP Members Alliance.’

This followed a petition written by ‘Kogi State PDP Concerned Group’ and submitted to the PDP Governors’ Forum, expressing their displeasure over the candidacy of the present governor of Kogi State, Idris Wada, in the forthcoming gubernatorial election in the state.

Reproduced below is the response to the petition by the ‘Kogi State PDP Concerned Group’.

ECHOCHO HAS FAILED MANY TIMES BEFORE, HE WILL FAIL AGAIN: A RESPONSE TO A ‘PASSIONATE PLEA BY KOGI STATE CONCERNED PDP GROUP’ SUBMITTED TO PDP GOVERNORS FORUM

We refer to the irresponsible petition that was submitted by a faceless organisation KOGI STATE PDP CONCERNED GROUP to the PDP Governors Forum dated 8th of July 2015 and submitted at the Ondo State Liaison Office on the 9th of July 2015.

We want to state for the record that the above named group and its members are unknown to the People Democratic Party and its members in Kogi State. This group fits the bill of the various faceless groups that the opposition have created to engender instability in our party. The fallacies contained in the petition further buttress our position.

We do not need to go far to know the sponsors of this petition as they have engaged in this macabre dance of shame and falsehood for the past 3 and a half years.

The publication bears all the hallmarks of Alh Jibrin Isah also known as Echocho. The main sponsor of this petition believes Kogi Governorship is his birth right but he is not ready to battle for it in a free and fair contest. Instead, he has chosen to dedicate his life and earnings to trying to get the ticket through the backdoor.

His first sojourn to claim the ticket of PDP was in January 2011 when he emerged from nowhere to contest for the party’s primaries. Our memories are still clear as to how the lights went off in the stadium and in a twinkle of an eye, the results were changed to favour this former ED who contributed in no small measure to the fall of Afribank Plc.

It was reported then that to get the lights off, MR BACKDOOR GOVERNOR entered into a diabolical pact with the son of the then Governor to hand over power to him after he has completed 4 years. But God saved the people of Kogi State and his diabolical plans were cut short when the January 2011 primaries were cancelled by the courts.

His next ignoble outing was during the rescheduled PDP primaries of September 2011 where he participated and scored a humiliating one (1) vote.

An even more dismal outing for this self- acclaimed Gubernatorial by-force candidate was the recent presidential election where PDP scored a shameful 34 Votes in his Ajiolo Ojaji polling unit. It beats us how somebody who could not deliver his polling unit to PDP in the last elections will seek to become the gubernatorial candidate of PDP.

After instituting and losing over 20 frivolous cases against the governor in all the courts of the federation and losing all free and fair contests in the state, The only conclusion, one can draw from Mr BACKDOOR Governor’s latest antics is that he knows he cannot win any free and fair election in Kogi State but he has availed himself to used by the opposition to frustrate Governor Wada’s re-election bid so that they can have a smooth ride in Kogi State using the dirty methods of mudslinging and continuous rabble rousing that has become second nature to him. He has failed many times before, he will fail again.

Idris Wada should let his achievement speak for him, that's what the PDP said to him. Has he achieved anything for 4yrs?

PDP looks certain to loose Kogi state as things stand.

Brother, if PDP want to retain that state I advice the party to give the ticket to another candidate!
