Some youth in Kogi east senatorial district have denounced what they described as the “crude, vitriolic and impudent attacks” on the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration in the state.

In a statement issued in Abuja, Daniel Ojodale, national president of Kogi East Youths Organisation, said  Yahaya Bello, governor of the state, is being attacked by those who have held the state down for 13 years.

Ojodale said the viciousness of the seemingly coordinated attacks raises a lot of concern about the state.

He said the “desperadoes” and their collaborators in the state were willing to sink just to carry out their nefarious plot.

”We are surprised that so-called elders of a political party that do not have a history of performance is bent on advising a young, focused governor who is currently embarking on efforts to develop all sectors of the economy,” he said.

“They are not qualified to mark our scripts or assess the current administration in Kogi State because the APC government operates a new syllabus.”

He said because of the yawning developmental gap left behind by many years of PDP misrule and the concerted efforts by the APC to right the wrongs, it is understandable that the “mouth of detractors who failed woefully in the past will be filled with sour grapes”.

“Old age has now become the meal ticket for some elders, whose trump card for maintaining a stranglehold on the resources of the state is to whip up sentiments against the APC administration in the state.”
