Governor Osman Ahmed Ododo of Kogi State made headlines today, August 24, 2024, by attending the PDP Governor’s Forum in Taraba. The presence of an APC Governor at a gathering traditionally reserved for members of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has sparked widespread discussion across the country.
This unexpected move comes just a day after the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Governor Ododo in a legal challenge brought against him by Murtala Ajaka of Social Democratic Party (SDP) and other political parties, concerning the 2023 Kogi State Governorship Election. As the leader of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Kogi State, Governor Ododo’s appearance at the PDP event has left many puzzled.
While Governor Ododuo was not seen participating in the meeting itself, speculation is rife about his motives. Some political observers have labeled his actions as “anti-party,” while others suggest there may be deeper reasons yet to be disclosed. However the chief press secretary to the governor has not made anystatement regarding the fears of members of the APC.
Voice of the People News is closely monitoring the situation and eagerly awaits an official statement from the Governor’s office, particularly from the Chief Press Secretary, to shed light on the matter. Until then, the nation remains curious about why an APC Governor would attend a PDP Governor’s Forum.
