Usman Ododo, the gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kogi state, has made a bold claim about his financial status.
The former Kogi state Auditor General for Local Government has declared that he is the wealthiest candidate among all the contestants for the forthcoming governorship election.
He also said if he wins the election, he would be Nigeria’s richest state chief executive.
Ododo made the declaration in a video circulating on social media in the last 24 hours. It is not clear where or when he made the statement.
He confidently declared, “As it stands now, I am the richest candidate as far as candidates are concerned. I am going to be the richest governor as far as this country is concerned.”
The declaration comes as the state gears up for its upcoming gubernatorial election, setting the stage for an intriguing political contest.
