 Murtala Ajaka and Usman Ododo Emerge as Key Contenders in Kogi's Gubernatorial Two-Horse Race— Tom Ohikere 


As the clock ticks down to the highly anticipated governorship election in Kogi state, political enthusiasts are bracing for a riveting two-horse race. Scheduled alongside elections in Bayelsa and Imo states, the Kogi poll stands out, devoid of an incumbent seeking reelection after the completion of Governor Yahaya Bello's constitutionally mandated two terms.


With around twelve candidates vying for the coveted position, the focus narrows down to four prominent contenders: Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo (APC), Alhaji Murtala Yakubu Ajaka (SDP), Senator Dino Melaye (PDP), and Honourable Elder Leke Abejide (ADC). Each brings a unique background to the race, with Ododo, a former auditor general of local government, enjoying the backing of the ruling APC. Ajaka, a former deputy national publicity secretary of the APC, is the SDP flagbearer, while Melaye, a former senator and spokesperson of the PDP’s 2023 presidential campaign, aims for the governorship. Abejide, a sitting House of Representatives member, represents the ADC.


Despite the formidable campaign efforts of the PDP and the ADC, many observers believe the real contest lies between the APC and the SDP candidates. Ododo, a protégé of the outgoing governor, carries the momentum of the ruling party, while Ajaka, with his APC background, stands as a strong contender for the SDP.


While acknowledging Melaye's charisma and administrative prowess, concerns linger over the complexities of the political landscape in Kogi West, his senatorial district, posing potential challenges to his prospects in this two-horse race. As the state braces for the electoral showdown, only time will reveal the political trajectory that Kogi will embark upon under its new leadership.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
