We Are Not Commodities That Can Be Sold At Open Market; Audu Political Family to Faleke
Members of the Political family of the late Prince Abubakar Audu has frowned at a comment credited to the member representing Ikeja federal constituency in the House of Representatives Honourable Abiodun Faleke where he promised to hand over the structure of the late political titan to Governor Yahaya Bello describing his comment as an unfortunate betrayal of Prince Abubakar Audu in death.
The group said while it can not hold Hon Faleke from tearing the fabrics of his political clan in Kogi State, he should stop the misconception of handing our group to Yahaya Bello.
"We are not commodities that can be sold to a buyer in any open market. Our political participation in Kogi State predates the incursion of Faleke into Kogi politics.
"How then can we become pawns in his political game of chess?
The group, who spoke through a statement made made available to the press on Wednesday by the group spokesperson, John Odekina, said the choice of Honourable Faleke to work for Governor Yahaya Bello is his personal decision and it does not reflect the decision of the political family of prince Audu.
The group wondered why Hon James Abiodun Faleke who was co-opted as a Lagos representative from Ikeja and Lagos politician, to deputise the late former Governor in a relationship that did not last more than 6 months could usurp out of his political wisdom, the large political empire of Prince Abubakar Audu which predate him coming to Kogi state.
"Some of us has been following late Prince Abubakar Audu since his days at NRC and we moved together to APP, ANPP, ACN and eventually to APC until the death of our leader. We wonder how a stranger who joined the family barely six months to the demise of prince Audu think he can sell us as a cheap commodity to governor Bello. He must certainly have an over blotted image of himself said the spokesman person of the group.
"We want to speak to the conscience of Honourable Faleke to remember how Yahaya Bello treated our leader during the campaign even after his death, he went further to set up his son Mohammed Audu accusing him of armed robbery", the group said
The group urged the general public and the large political family of the sage, to disregard such undeserved and misleading statements from Hon James Abiodun Faleke as he lack suck capacity as influence to mortgage us for his own selfish interest.
