Some people need to take permission before they can cross the bridge,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ebirareporters.com\">ebirareporters.com<\/a> gathered that the statement was targeted at the candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Murtala Yakubu Ajaka, his major rival for the Igala consensus bid.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Feelers indicated that Jibrin referred to the violent encounter between Ajaka and Governor Yahaya Bello on Lokoja road, resulting in trading of blames and criticisms.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Recall that <a href=\"https:\/\/ebirareporters.com\/2023\/06\/03\/breaking-gunmen-attack-gov-yahaya-bellos-convoy\/\">the Governor claimed his convoy was attacked by thugs<\/a> loyal to Ajaka, and the accused also ran a contrary claim, especially as he could not enter the state.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cSince that episode, he has not been able to attempt returning to the state to continue his consultation with royal fathers. I wonder what campaign he would be running with this foundation. In addition to this, he was on a wrong Twitter trend more recently for fraudulent reasons\u201d Ibrahim Awal, a political analyst said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Speaking on the capacity of the Accord Party&#8217;s candidate st the unveiling, Achuba said the former Naval boss possesses great level of security experience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nHe has fought battles, and he has seen peace. So, both ways, he can go. He knows the dangers of war, and he knows the relevance of peace to mankind. We believe that with him, he will appropriate rightly, and Kogi will move forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The governorship candidate of Accord Party for November 11th governorship election in Kogi State, Vice Admiral Usman Jibrin&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1345,34,1201,1249],"class_list":{"0":"post-7734","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-politics","7":"tag-accord-party","8":"tag-kogi","9":"tag-murtala-yakubu-ajaka","10":"tag-usman-jibrin"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.5 -
