Kogi guber: I see SDP’s Muri putting up good fight — Primate Ayodele

The leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has said the gubernatorial candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Kogi, Murtala Ajaka popularly called Muri, would put up a good fight in Saturday’s governorship election in the State.

He, however, slammed opposition parties in the state for not forming a coalition in preparation for the governorship election that will be held tomorrow, Saturday, November 11.

In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele blasted the candidates for allegedly placing their interests above the progress of the State.

He noted that it is impossible for the opposition candidates to win the governorship election without a coalition.

He stated that a coalition would have increased the chances of the opposition but they all want to be in power at the same time.

‘’In Kogi, I don’t see opposition parties winning the governorship election because they haven’t done the right thing. It is impossible for them to win elections individually and they should have come together to fight the ruling party if truly they want the progress of the state but as it stands, I don’t see them coming out in flying colours.

‘’Coalition would have helped the opposition but they all want to be in power at the same time. The election will be a thug of war and the APC is ready to go all out for the election. It won’t be an easy journey and the party will struggle in the election.

‘’The candidate of the SDP, Murtala Ajaka will be a serious factor in the election. I see him putting up a good fight in the election,’’ he revealed.
