I Wont Be Bello’s Deputy, Faleke Insists

The Kogi State All Progressives Congress (APC) deputy governorship candidate, Abiodun Faleke has said that he would not be available for swearing-in with Alhaji Yahaya Bello on January 27, 2016.

Faleke, who stated this yesterday in Kabba at a meeting of APC stakeholders from Kogi West senatorial district, said this was in furtherance of his earlier letter to the national leadership of the party not to work with Bello, the governorship candidate.

He said: “I will not disappoint Prince Abubakar Audu. I, James Abiodun Faleke, will not be there for the swearing-in if we don’t finish the case before the January 27, 2016.

“Nobody consulted me before making me a deputy to Bello. He too did not consult me. I have made my position known to the party leadership on this. I am not ready to betray and disappoint Prince Abubakar Audu.”

He also exonerated President Muhammadu Buahri from the crisis, saying that he was certain that Buhari cannot be a party to injustice and outright violation of the rule of law.

While asking the people not to fight or castigate anybody over the development, Faleke said that those who are fighting in 2015 for positions in 2019 were trying God.

“People are fighting for 2019 in 2015. Are they God? What is happening is beyond human imagination.

“I am a marathoner, no matter how bumpy and rough the road is, we shall get there, “he said.
