Labaran Maku Fails To Get APGA Ticket by lekanolas: 7:06am On Jan 01, 2015
Former minister of information Labaran Maku yesterday failed in his bid to secure the governorship ticket of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) to run for governor of Nasarawa State, after the holder of the ticket declared his resolve to run for the office.

Maku had led a delegation of his supporters for discussions with APGA governorship candidate, Matthew Umbugaku, at the latter’s office in Abuja, on the feasibility of Umbugaku handing over the party’s governorship ticket to Maku in the forthcoming general elections.

However, in yesterday’s deliberations, the APGA flag bearer was said to have stated his intention to run for the office, insisting that he was not ready to relinquish his slot.

Umbugaku’s spokesman, Mannix Ebhota, told reporters that the APGA candidate was ready to kick-start campaigns on januarry 5, starting with sensitisation tour of communities and towns throughout the state. On his boss’ chances of winning, he noted that Umbugaku had a lot of developmental programmes which will be unveiled during the campaign, saying he is the best candidate for the state’s top job.

Umbugaku is credited with establishing APGA in the state and was elected unopposed in the party’s governorship primary on December 9, 2014, while Maku lost the governorship ticket of his former party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), coming in second place.

Since then, Maku has reportedly been seeking an alternative political platform to fulfil his ambition to govern his state, after resigning from President Goodluck Jonathan’s cabinet. He was said to have unsuccessfully tried to run on Labour Party’s platform.

Tells me he has been used and dumped. If he was unscrupulous like you said, he would have been kicked out of the government earlier. Except of course, maybe because the government captain is himself unscrupulous.
