A group known as the Kogi Women Alliance for Ododo 2023 has asked President Bola Tinubu to reappoint Ramatu Tijjani Aliyu, immediate-past minister of state for the federal capital territory (FCT).

In a statement on Wednesday, Memunat Sanni and Josephine Audu, the group’s convener and secretary, said Aliyu’s campaign for Tinubu in the build-up to the election earned him a “moderate success” in the nation’s capital.

They said the former minister deserves to be rewarded and given more tasks to perform, having delivered in her recent outing.

“Ramatu Tijjani Aliyu is an asset to Kogi state. She is a pillar of support and she has not hidden this fact. She has continued to support governor Yahaya Bello and she’s also supporting the candidate of the APC in the upcoming governorship election in the state,” the statement reads.

“In her recent national assignment, she delivered well, despite all the landmines set for her by her distractors. She had every reason to fail, but she succeeded, notwithstanding.

“During the COVID-19 pandemic, Aliyu did the unthinkable, when she ensured that palliatives distributed got to those who needed to be reached. Ordinary people were taken care of and the records are there.

“In the area of agriculture and primary healthcare in the FCT, Mrs Aliyu did well. Such an asset needs to be put to use and we are using this medium to call on President Tinubu to consider her for a national assignment and appoint her a minister.

“Tinubu rewards hard work and loyalty. And we’re optimistic that the situation will not be different this time. Aliyu deserves commendation and Tinubu should do this by appointing her.”
