He maintained that the APC had no serious opposition in the state, adding that the party was not negotiating its political strength with any other political party.
Ganaja commended Governor Ododo for what he described as efforts to improve the welfare of the people and execute development projects across the three senatorial districts of the state.
“His Excellency, Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo, is putting smiles on our faces every time. Go to the nook and cranny of the state—the East, West and Central—you can see projects going on everywhere,” he said.
He also praised the governor for the regular payment of workers’ salaries, noting that the administration had demonstrated commitment to the welfare of civil servants.
Ganaja urged the people of the state to continue supporting the governor and the APC, saying the party’s focus was on consolidating on its achievements.
Reacting to questions about the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), his former political party, Ganaja dismissed the party as a political threat to the APC in Kogi State.
He cited the large turnout recorded during a recent APC rally and one-million-man march in Ajaokuta as evidence of the party’s growing support in the area.
“If you see the mammoth turnout of people yesterday, you will know that Ajaokuta is for APC,” he said.
On the emergence of a secretary following a screening exercise, Ganaja described the candidate as a competent individual with both technical and political experience.
Speaking on the expectations of the people of Ajaokuta, Ganaja assured residents of improved representation and development, stressing that he and the secretary were committed to the progress of the area.
Ganaja expressed optimism that continued unity, development and consolidation of the APC’s achievements would further strengthen the party’s position in Kogi State ahead of future elections.
