According to him, the Confluence City will host participants from other states in the North Central region, while similar rallies will be coordinated across the other geopolitical zones.
He stated that the rally will commence at the Ganaja Junction Flyover, proceed through the Government House area, and end at Amusement Park, Lokoja, where people of the North Central region will speak with one voice ahead of the 2027 general elections.
This rally will be coordinated across the six geopolitical zones of the country, and my humble self, as the North Central Coordinator, will be coordinating the zone from my home state, Kogi State, Lokoja, tomorrow (Wednesday).”
Amb. Omotowa stated that the present administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has shown love to the North Central region and the country through the appointment of sons and daughters of the region to key positions.
The Coordinator explained that the appointment of Prof. Joash Amupitan as Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and Lieutenant General Waidi Shaibu as Chief of Army Staff, among others, demonstrates the President’s confidence in the region.
The President has been so generous to the people of the zone, North Central in particular. In his magnanimity, in his incivility, he has been so fair to us in appointments. For example, we have our illustrious sons he has appointed in his administration.
“Talk about the SGF or even the INEC Chairman and the Chief of Army Staff, the list is many. So it is our time to tell the President that we are grateful, and that is why we are canvassing that if you give him another opportunity to consolidate on the beautiful reforms and achievements, we will benefit more dividends of democracy.”
He noted that 2027 would be the time for the people of Kogi State and the entire North Central region to speak with one voice in massive support of the President.
Amb. Omotowa added that the present administration is addressing security challenges, particularly with its plan to introduce state policing.
The Coordinator stated that, in a bid to ensure that the people of the region are not deceived, the group is committed to embarking on a door-to-door campaign to return President Tinubu and the Vice President to office.
He pointed out that the group, founded by High Chief Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, is one hundred per cent loyal and ready to deliver the President at the polls.
