The news of the purported emergence of an anointed candidate for the Okene II Constituency has been making the rounds in recent time and it is on this note that I wish to make Clear the following:
That His Excellency, Governor Alh. Yahaya Bello is a man of principle, a man of Justice and a man of equity and as such, there is no doubting the fact that he will support only candidates who emerged through a primary election that is well conducted and in a manner well transparent and acceptable to all contestants.
Our great party, the All Progressive Congress APC, is an organised political party with a well laid down procedures for the selection or election of candidates that will serve as their flag bearer in any given election. Candidates in our party emerge either through Direct or Indirect mode of election or through consensus that is agreed to by all the aspirants. APC has never been known for hand-picking and imposing candidates on its members and I am sure that our Great Party wouldn’t start doing that now.
That Comrade Yakubu Nazir Abdulhakeem is still very much in the race for the Okene II Constituency House of Assembly and we are hopeful that by the grace of God, he Will clinch the party’s ticket and go ahead to win the election come 2023.
So we urge all our supporters to disregard all the rumours flying around and remain resolute in their support as we still remain in the game like never before.
Brain not Legs 2023 and Gyb2Pmb is our Target.

Media Team Leader
