KOGI 2027 & 2031 & BEYOND: _The HARD TRUTH They Know, You Must Know and They Don't Want You To Know..._

*KOGI 2027 & 2031 & BEYOND*: _The HARD TRUTH They Know, You Must Know and They Don't Want You To Know..._ 

- By ONIBIYO 'Dayo

As long as Kogi exists as a State, neither Ebira or Okun will ever be Governor without cooperation between  Kogi Central and Kogi West, except we pray that another Igala man keeps dies like in the case of the very respected Prince of the Niger, Late H.E Sir Audu Abubakar. Well, even if anyone wish such, the goodness of the Lord won’t allow such death again. Amen.

1. Did God killed Audu, no, best position: He knew Audu will die! could He God stop Audu from dying, yes He could if he wanted to. Did God want Okun (Faleke) who was his deputy then to be Governor. No. God did not, if he wanted no one could have being able to  stop Okun/ Faleke from becoming a Governor then. No matter the plot.

2. Since democracy came in 1992, Late H.E Alhaji Audu Abubakar an Igala man had been Governor, Alhaji Ibrahim Idris an Igala man too and Idris Wada and Igala man too had been Governors, while Okun and Ebira watched from the observer seats for 18 years 7 months.

3. All these years from 1992 and the return of Democracy in 1999 and till now, makes 18 years  7 months of democratic rule in Kogi State

              *96 Months*

               Jan 16- Jan 24

               APC

          vi. H.E Usman Ododo

               Governor

              *Ebira*- Kogi Central

               Jan '24-

               Incumbent

               APC

4. In all, three (3) months was for ACTING GOVERNOR by order of Supreme Court ordering a rerun, so we are dealing with Governor slot, we shall exclude the three months from our calculation.

5. We are adding up all the months- 23+48+57+48+48+96+(as of today 10th November 2025) 23 which give a total of 343 months, summed to 28 Years 7 Months.

6. In this Igala from Kogi West has spent 224 Months summed to *18 years 7 Months* 

7. In this Ebira from Kogi Central has spent 119 Months summed to *9 years 9 Months*

8. Looking at this, Igala has being there for 18 years succeeding itself as 1st Governor, 2nd Governor and 3rd Governor, for five (5) different times while Central and Okun WATCHED! Why will anyone say Igala can not also watch others TAKE THEIR TURNS? Is a tribe superior to the other, the answer is absolute NO.

9. Yes, Ebira is now running 9 years and still seeking to complete the incumbency's remaining 27 months to make it 48 Months, and still agitating for a 2nd term to complete Sixteen (16) years, meaning Igala is still OWING TWO (2) YEARS SEVEN (7) MONTHS? Is Ebira's quest to compete a 16 years tenure of four terms wrong compared to Igala's 18 years 7 months? No its not wrong.

10. Igala has now waited for only 9 years 9 months, do they have the right to complain? No they don't because both Ebira of Kogi Central and Okun of Kogi West had waited 18 solid years and 7 months before and heaven did not fall? 

11. Okun is now waiting for the whooping 28 years 4 months and not comfortable with that. Is that right, No its not right considering the number of years thus far! but RIGHT considering how much longer it has to wait, which is just 6 years 3 months, compared to waiting forever when igala ruled and no hope of passing the baton to any other tribe, justified by Igala's long reign.

        b. *Note* 

The present reign by Ebira is a product of strong cooperation between Ebira of Kogi Central and Kogi West with the absolute support of BASSA that had being treated like the North Central of Nigeria by the core North, that takes things in the name of the entire North and then remove the Central, until June 12 expressed the power of the North Central and Tinubu is consolidating on it's gain. 

12. Is the agitation to TRUNCATE Ebira's 16 years move now remaining 6 years 3 months right? It has FOUR (4) answers (a-d): 

       

        a. first (1ST) for the      

             *POWER GREEDY*          

              *IGALA PERSONS* 

              *YES, IT IS*  

               *RIGHT,* 

               because it is an 

               opportunity for 

               them to *'COME*                       

               *BACK TO*

                *POWER* and 

               mean the

               *BREAKDOWN OF*

               *COOPERATION* 

               between Kogi 

               Central and Kogi 

               West on *POWER* 

           b. Second (2ND) for 

                the  *GREAT*   

               *IGALA MINDS* 

              *NO* 

               *IT IS WRONG,* 

               because it is an 

               opportunity for 

               *DOMINANCE* to

               *CONTINUE, KILL*         

               *THE 2023*

                *BROTHERHOOD*  

               between their other

               *TWO BROTHERS* 

               from *CENTRAL*

               and *WEST* and

               *ENSURE* that the

               *AGREEMENT* to 

               *ROTATE POWER* 

               to the *WEST*        

               come *2031 FAILS*

               and therefore,

               *TRUNCATING*

               *THE IDEAL*

               *DESIRE OF*

               *POWER GOING*

               *ROUND* Kogi 

                State.  To them,

                If not for

                the same EQUAL 

                18 years 7 months

                that igala had it, at

                least for the normal

                16 years allowed

                DEMOCRATICALLY

               *gifting Igala 2yrs*

                *7 months*.

 *Note* 

🫵

To these class of wonderful and fair minded Igala people, the *16 years each quests for Central and then West are SACRIFICES by both WEST and CENTRAL*  to *FORGIVE IGALA* for its perpetuation for *18 years 7 months non stop DOMINANCE*, as it is clear that, Igala will still make away with *2 YEARS 7 MONTNS* unequalled term, as *no provision for 2 years 7 months tenure but four years.*

            c. Third, (3RD) for an 

                 *UNSUSPECTING*

                 *OKUN MAN, YES*              

                 *IT IS RIGHT,* for 

               he is   

                 *INTERESTED* in

               becoming 

                *GOVERNOR* now,

               driven by the so

                 *LONG WAIT* and

                 *ASSUMED NEED* 

               to take advantage

               of *FALEKE'S* 

               influence under

                  *TINUBU'S* 

                  *PRESIDENCY*, 

               which if happens,

                *WILL COLLAPSE*

                *THE*  

                *COOPERATION*

               between the WEST

               and CENTRAL, and 

               of course riddled

                with the fear of

                Central would not

                Keep the deal! So

                So which deal will

                Central keep? 

 *Note* 

Let us agree that President Tinubu GCFR do all he can and succeeded in installing FALEKE in 2027 and DESTROYS the understanding between the CENTRAL and WEST, who will DO SAME IN 2031 for Faleke? when Tinubu won’t be there? Or you will say *FALAKE WOULD HAVE BEING A GOVERNOR THEN?* and *I WILL ASK YOU, IS ODODO NOT A GOVERNOR NOW?* Have we not seen *INCUMBENT LOSING RETURN ELECTIONS?*

Meaning the farthest this prayer for 2027 would have gone is *JUST FOUR (4) YEARS OF OKUN AS GOVERNOR* and *EBIRA* would have had *TWELVE (12) years!* after Governor 

Ododo's tenure! *WHO WOULD BE THE LOSER, when *the greedy ones in Igala comes back to power now?*

The same would be what happened in 2023, *Ebira wanted to complete its 16 years if they lose to Igala, Igala wanted to come back at all cost to keep ruling, *SO THEY BOTH SACRIFICED OKUN!*

*Whatever, excuses giving by Igala for fielding MURI was not and will never be tenable*, just like the *one given by GYB to succeed himself with another CENTRAL man*.

However,  *ONE OF THE SITUATIONS GAVE HOPE*, while the other *DID NOT*, both has HAPPENED RIGHT IN OUR OWN VERY EYES.

            i. Igala has denied 

               Okun Severally and 

               denied Ebira 

               severally.

           ii. If Igala truly got

               annoyed and fielded

               Okun in 2023, we 

               would emerged 

               Governor, even if

               we paraded 1m

               Candidates.

         iii. Ebira denied us 

              once in 2023.

          iv. If Ebira has fielded 

               us Okun in 2023,

               we would have 

               emerged  

               Governor too.

So the situations we are talking about are not *permutations and postulations as some are WRONGLY putting it now!* They are events that had taking place and still playing out.

               d. Fourth, (4TH) for 

                  a *CALCULATIVE*

                 *OKUN MAN, NO*              

                  *IT IS WRONG,*  

                   for he is   

                 *INTERESTED* in

                 becoming 

                *GOVERNOR* after

                *WAITING FOR* 

                *SO LONG AND*

                *NOW HAVING A*  

                *SYSTEM THAT*

                *HIS*  

                *ONCE CHEATED*

                *BROTHER IS*

                 *A GOVERNOR* 

                and his unwillingness

                to lose the ,

                *COLLAPSE OF*

                *THE*  

                *COOPERATION*

                 between the WEST

                 and CENTRAL for

                 purely sustainability

                 purposes. He is not    

                 ruled by enthusiasms 

                 neither

                 overwhelmed

                 by assumed influence

                 but focused on 

               *DATA FROM FACTS*

                and the *REALITIES*

                that:

                   i. Neither West or 

                      Central can be

                      Governor 

                      *WITHOUT EACH*

                    *OTHER*

                 ii. Igala can be 

                     Governor when

                     West and Central

                   *FAILS TO COME*

                  *TOGETHER*

                    directly or at 

                   *RERUN*

The fact remains that, no *TRIBE WONT WAIT AT ONE POINT or the OTHER*, its simple *LOGIC* , when Igala was ruling, *West* and *Central* *WAITED*, now that *CENTRAL* is *ruling?* *Is West and East not WAITING* and when *West will rule,* *East and Central will WAIT* ! NO one will be RULING when KOGI IS NO LONGER EXISTING.

I am passionately appealing to the sensibilities of the West to see beyond 2027 for the sustainability of POWER ROTATION, which will also one day return to the EAST where the good people of BASSA and other collaborating UNITY LGAs can take their own TURN one after the other. Na turn by turn o o o

So, if after *REVIEWING* these *facts* and *happenings* , you still feel that an OKUN (West) man should throw out or kick out an EBIRA (Central) plus our ALLIES IN BASSA and others) to become the Governor in 2027 *(which may and which may NOT and when the deal would have collapsed)* then good luck sir and ma for preparing way for the *power greedy Igala minds to return* either after four (4).years of OKUN or even in 2027, as we have seen people supported by the POWER THAT BE LOSING, __we are all here together!_
