While assuring Alhaji Ododo Ahmed Usman of their unalloyed support in the election, the Tiv traditional rulers and their representatives said their decision to support the APC was as a result of the excellent security situation which has enabled them to go about their farming activities and other business endeavors unmolested.

They eulogized Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello for his unmatchable achievements in the areas of health, education, security architecture and human capital development in the past seven years.

In his response, Alhaji Ododo who expressed appreciation to the Tiv for their sincerity and valour, said their support for the New Direction administration in the past seven years was noticed, and assured them of continued improvement in security situation across the state when elected as the Executive Governor of Kogi State.

Ododo further assured them that he would continue in Governor Yahaya Bello’s legacy of giving respect and recognition to all other ethnic groups resident in Kogi State when he assumes office next year.
