The Director General on Media and Publicity to the Kogi State Governor, Kingsley Fanwo has described as political jokers, those calling for the resignation of the Governor over the INEC registration saga, saying that the matter was overblown by opponents to score political goals.
Fanwo in a statement in Lokoja on Saturday said the governor would not resign, saying the "issue was straight forward enough as the Governor welcomes the decision of INEC to cancel the latter registration".
"Resignation is completely out of the options and the Governor will continue his good work for the people of Kogi State. They and their corrupt sponsors should wait till 2019.
"The Governor will not resign. We have listened to INEC and we respect their decisions. Now is time for the Commission to fast-track the transfer of the PVC of the Governor to Kogi State from Abuja.
