Sunday Karimi, senator representing Kogi West and chairman of the Senate Committee on Services, says his priority is the success of President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 elections.
Speaking while engaging constituents from across the seven
LGAs in his senatorial district, Karimi said he is not involved in any
political tussle with anyone in the state.
He urged critical stakeholders to unite and work
collectively towards Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027.
“Our priority is to ensure the re-election of President Bola
Ahmed Tinubu come 2027. I am not in a political tussle with anyone whatsoever
in the state,” the senator said.
“The re-election of President Tinubu is a task that must be
accomplished by all critical stakeholders in Kogi state.”
Karimi urged his constituents to return to their communities
and mobilise support for the president, noting that he is prioritising and
harmonising their demands to ensure effective representation.
The senator commended Tinubu’s “tireless” efforts towards
national development and the protection of citizens despite prevailing security
challenges.
He alleged that escalating insecurity in the country is
aimed at undermining the administration, urging citizens not to lose hope.
He said their challenges are being discussed at the national
assembly with a view to finding lasting solutions.
The lawmaker also briefed them on the outcome of his meeting
with the brigade commander in Lokoja on Wednesday.
He said the meeting focused on insecurity in Kogi west,
adding that troops would be deployed to the Olle-Bunu, Jege, Odo-Ere, Idofin, and Isanlu communities.
Responding to questions on the delay in reconstructing the
Kabba–Egbe road, Karimi said the Federal Ministry of Works is awaiting approval
from the Bureau of Public Procurement.
“The federal ministry of works is awaiting approval from the
Bureau of Public Procurement to commence the project,” he said.
“I have personally contributed N3 billion — N2 billion from
my constituency allowance and an additional N1 billion — to supplement the
project’s funding and expedite its completion.”
