Chief Onoja Receives Former Kogi PDP Guber Aspirant, Joe Erico into APC in Olamaboro

…Reminds Olamaboro Youths of Aversion to Gun Politics

Opposition parties in Kogi State have been dealt another major blow in Olamaboro LGA following the defection of a former governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Hon Dr Joseph Ameh Erico who formally dumped the perforated umbrella for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Hon Erico, alongside decampees harvested from the SDP, LP, APGA, and other political parties, was ably received by the State Deputy Governor, Chief (Dr) Edward Onoja, on behalf of Governor Yahaya Bello at the Okpo Ceremonial Square in Olamaboro, on Monday.

Chief Onoja noted that the gale of defections to the APC in Olamaboro indicates the decimation of opposition, stating that Governor Bello is poised to integrate them into the party structure.

He assured them of equal opportunities in the ruling party, describing Hon Erico as a valuable asset given his years of experience. He urged them to work assiduously with other stakeholders for the victory of the APC in the governorship and future elections.

While stressing that politics is local, he emphasized the longstanding relevance of Olamaboro in Kogi politics, reiterating the consistent delivery of bloc votes from the region whenever a decision is made by Olamaborarians whom he described as “people who do not play double faced politics”, from the inception of ANPP before it metamorphosed into the APC.

Chief Onoja warned sternly, reminding Olamaboro Youths the potency of her culture and values which prioritizes human life above all forms of political interests, counseling that elections have always been won in Olamaboro without the use of guns against brothers.

Chief Onoja advised internal party stalwarts to shun politics of division, backbiting, and slandering but rather prioritize engagement of the people instead of any schemes that promote violence.

In company of the Deputy Governor to receive the defectors were the Olamaboro LG Chairman, Hon Friday Adejoh, Commissioner for Commerce and Industry, Hon Gabriel Olofu; LG Chairman of Ankpa, Hon Ibrahim Abagwu; State APC Secretary, Hon Joshua Onoja; among other Party stalwarts.
