Owe Common Front Reaffirms APC Support, Urges Unity Among Kogi West Leaders Ahead of 2027

KOGI WEST — The Owe Common Front has reaffirmed its support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) and called for greater unity among political leaders in Kogi West ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The group reportedly made the position known in a 10-point resolution adopted on Monday, August 31, 2026, urging political stakeholders to place the interests of the Owe people and the wider Kogi West community above personal political differences.

According to the resolution, the group recognised Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo as the leader of the APC in Kogi State and appealed to party leaders and stakeholders to work together despite differences in political aspirations.

The Owe Common Front said disagreements over political positions, particularly ahead of the 2027 governorship and senatorial contests, should not be allowed to create lasting divisions among leaders and members of the community.

The group also called for political tolerance, dialogue and mutual respect, stressing that political differences should not turn former allies and community members into enemies.

While reaffirming its support for the APC, the group said political support should translate into meaningful development for the Owe people.

It stated that it would engage political leaders and candidates based on factors such as performance, accessibility, character, capacity, community relationships and commitment to development.

The group also reportedly expressed support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's second-term ambition and urged APC stakeholders to strengthen party unity and grassroots mobilisation ahead of 2027.

The Owe Common Front concluded by advocating an “Owe-first, community-focused and politically responsible” approach, with emphasis on peace, unity and development.
