By Kingsley Fanwo Kogi West Elders Committee, a powerful socio-political leadership forum representing the interest of the Kogi West people of the state, has called on the Deputy Governor- Elect, Hon. James Abiodun Faleke to accept the outcome of the Kogi governorship election as God’s way of answering the prayers of the Kogi West people for power rotation. Rising from an extra-ordinary meeting at Obajana, the industrial headquarters of Kogi West, the committee said it was prepared to prevail on Faleke to work harmoniously with the Governor-Elect, Alh. Yahaya Bello to effect the desired change in Kogi State. The Committee called on political stakeholders from both Central and West to accept and abide by the decision of the APC leadership which favours the age long agitation for power rotation in the state. It said it would be a betrayal of the interest of the Kogi West and Kogi Central people if the present opportunity is lost to infighting among the oppressed. A communique signed by Chief Richard Asaje, Migbole Samuel and Mohammed Musa read in part: “That we accept the divine intervention of God for granting us the desired power shift or power rotation. “That the West and Central senatorial districts have agreed to stand on the path of unity and hold on the two positions of governor and deputy governor bestowed on us by God. “That we declare our solemn and total support for the governor-elect, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, and ensure his success; otherwise his failure is ours and not his.” The high powered meeting was attended by Chief Richard Asaje, Commodore Folusho Daniel (rtd), Asiwaju Idris Asiru, Mr. Mohammed Musa and other political leaders from Kogi West. Kogi West is made up of Lokoja, Kogi/Koto, Kabba/Bunu, Ijumu, Mopamuro, Yagba East http://www.vanguardngr.com/?p=595535

Verdict of the gods or verdicts of the rich and inconclusive INEC?

Whichever way sha, d gods has spoken.

.

Nigerians and their verdict from God even when they're not godly.

Hypocrites.

Faleke, fight it at the courts. Even if the courts rule against you it would deepen our democracy.

All these names listed are political neophytes. So why didn't Yahaya Bello accept the act of God when he lost the primaries to Audu? And for power shift, if Tribunal declared the election as won by Audu/Faleke, there will definitely be power shift to Faleke as Governor

You didn't write anything. Why?

Elders make una take time o....bello cannot eat where he did not sow

These elders should go and sit down. God does not support injustice. Faleke has filled his case before the electoral tribunal. The elders should please allow the honourable judges of the tribunal to decide on the merit of the case. No need to bring God into this clear case of injustice at this point in time. Let justice be done.

With Faleke as gov-elect, power has shifted.

Big thanks, just what I am thinking.
Verdict of man should not be equated to God's.
Where were the so called elders when Yahaya Bello went to court and worked against the party.

Fadeke is doing the perfect thing, by going to the tribunal. Let the law of the land prevail and it will also enrich our constitution.

Justice before peace.
