A female gubernatorial aspirant in Kogi state under the flagship of All Progressive Congress (APC), Hajia Hadiza Ibrahim has decried an alleged threat to her life from an unknown person in the party.

While speaking with journalists in Ibadan, Hajia Hadiza, the owner of Hadiza motors said she received a text message recently threatening her to dump her ambition

or suffer the consequences.

The female politician said she had reported the matter to the police who she believes will do something about it soon, but she appealed to people of Kogi state to come to her rescue.

Hajia Hadiza who is a princess from Igala kingdom, Dekina said there is no going back on her ambition to become the governor of the state even though she is contesting with about 20 other aspirants who are men.

Recalling the ordeals she had suffered in the past, Hadiza said she has lost one of his sons, Kamorudeen Yayah to politics when he was murdered by three armed men on August 15, 2014 for supporting Buhari as his choice of candidate in the last 2015 presidential election.
