The
Director General on Media and Publicity to the Kogi State Governor, Kingsley
Fanwo has described as political jokers,
those calling for the resignation of the Governor over the INEC registration
saga, saying that the matter was overblown by opponents to score political
goals.
Fanwo
in a statement in Lokoja on Saturday said the governor would not resign, saying
the "issue was straight forward enough as the Governor welcomes the
decision of INEC to cancel the latter registration".
"Resignation
is completely out of the options and the Governor will continue his good work
for the people of Kogi State. They and their corrupt sponsors should wait till
2019.
"The
Governor will not resign. We have listened to INEC and we respect their decisions.
Now is time for the Commission to fast-track the transfer of the PVC of the
Governor to Kogi State from Abuja.
Fanwo
said it was unfortunate that some APC leaders have constituted themselves as
opposition within the party, "simply because they have lost out in their
bid to compromise the system and scam the people of Kogi State".
"Ametuo
has turned himself to a diaspora Chairman who doesn't know what is happening in
Kogi State. He is running from his own shadows and has joined forces with those
who want to pull the APC-led government in Kogi State down.
"He
and his co-travelers have not come to terms with a new Kogi State that cannot
be compromised. Under Governor Yahaya Bello, it will never be business as
usual," he said
