James Faleke to INEC: 'I’m governor-elect of Kogi state'

Hon. James Faleke, the running mate to late Prince Abubakar Audu, the candidate of the APC in the governorship election in Kogi State, has written to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, asking the commission to declare him the governor-elect of the state.

The lawmaker said that under Nigerian Constitution, he was duly elected as deputy governor of Kogi State, hence no new candidate can inherit or be a beneficiary of the votes already cast, counted and declared by INEC and no new or supplementary candidate can hijack, aggregate, appropriate or inherit the said votes.

      I feel is high time we youths start reading more about this country and our leaders because with the comments I've read thus far, a lot of us don't pay attention to what is really happening. It will be stupid of INEC not to accept late prince Audu's son as the next gov. Candidate shekenan.

      Yes Tinubu went to Kogi n kiled him, or better still, he sent wind from Lagos to Kogi to kill Audu, thrash! What is wrong with a Yoruba man from Kogi being d governor? Have they ever been in that office? Why ddnt APC use your so called Yahaya as Audus deputy? The Deputy takes over, it's his right, whether he was picked from Lagos or America, they must have seen something in him!

    True talk!

    Any attempt by APC to conduct any primary to replace d late ex governor 2b wil spell trouble for them.

    PDP wil surely sue them since d constitution didn't mak any provision for any replacement or conducting of primary days b4 governorship election.

    So APC better b wise and not do d otherwise!

    I wholly concur with his submission. For sure some voters voted APC because of him and not because the Late Audu. If INEC really understands the meaning of the word "DEPUTY" they should know Faleke must act in the absence of Audu.

    I think the Hon Faleke was right, he was late Audu's running mate, though the election was declared inconclusive but he should be the replacement candidate, the position is not family stool that when the king is dead his son becomes the next king, let's us respect our Constitution, election is not cancelled, the only areas where the election will be held are just in 91 pooling boots to make the election conclusive. This Man should not be rubbed, if the party wants to compensate the late Audu's family, then his son should be made to be the running mate and also immortalise Audu th late legend.
