Omade denies reports of Kogi APC crisis and political rift

Hajia Aishat Oyiza Omade, National Director of Planning for Relax Tinubu Is Fixing Nigeria (RTIFN), has dismissed reports of a political rift among associates of Kogi State Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo. She also denied claims of an ongoing crisis within the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kogi State.

Addressing the replacement of Senator Abubakar Sadiku Ohere as Kogi State Coordinator of RTIFN, Omade stated the move was intended to promote political inclusion and equitable representation rather than resolve internal conflict. She noted that leadership positions appeared disproportionately concentrated in the Okene Local Government Area and argued for better representation across other areas, such as Adavi Local Government Area.

Omade maintained that the party remains unified and that rumors of discord are unfounded narratives designed to create doubt regarding the party's strength. The stability of the Kogi APC is considered vital for maintaining political alignment with the federal administration led by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
