From Noah Ocheni, Lokoja
The candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Alh. Ahmed Usman Ododo, was on Saturday drilled for hours by the Director of security service (DSS) regarding a petition against him by some members of the opposition.
It was gathered that he was invited by the DSS and as a law abiding citizen who is aspiring to lead the state, he honoured the invitation.
According to him, shortly after honouring the invitation, Alhaji Usman Ododo said allegations contained in the petition are frivolous and unfounded, but “it was incumbent of me to respect a constituted authority such as the DSS.”
Alh. Ododo was drilled by a team of Operatives at the DSS for hours and he gave convincing explanations to the interrogators.
“We commend the professionalism of the DSS and pledge our cooperation to whatever measures taken or that would be taken to ensure a peaceful Kogi and a peaceful poll in November 2023.”
“We assure supporters of the APC GOVERNORSHIP candidate that he has since left the DSS Office to continue his consultations with Kogites ahead of the Guber poll.”
“Our commitment to peace and tranquility is iron cast. Every Kogite and every supporter of Alh. Ahmed Usman Ododo should endeavour to be peaceful in all their activities towards the election.”
