The constitutional crisis trailing the Kogi State governorship election took a new twist, yesterday, with All Progressives Congress, APC members of the Kogi State House of Assembly insisting that Mohammed Audu, the first son of the deceased APC Candidate, Prince Abubakar Audu, should replace his father in the December 5 supplementary governorship polls.
If the party fielded anyone other than Mohammed Audu, the legislators threatened to impeach the person, if elected. This was the message the lawmakers took to the National Working Committee, NWC, of the APC at its national secretariat in Abuja, yesterday.
This came as supporters of late Audu’s running mate, Hon. James Falake stormed the party’s office in protest, demanding that the party should make Faleke step into the shoes of his principal, arguing that both of them ran the first election on a joint ticket.
