The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Nasarawa state, Labaran Maku, has said he would not join any cult group just to be elected governor of the state in the forthcoming general elections.

Maku made the assertion on Wednesday, January 2, while addressing supporters that paid new year homage to him at his home in Wakama village of Nassarawa-Eggon local government area of the state.

Legit.ng notes that the governorship candidate says: “I have always relied only on God throughout my life and He has been faithful to me. If God has helped and protected me since my days as a leader of students, to commissioner, deputy governor and minister, why should I now rely on a deity that is powerless. No power or connection that is not of God that can give me position except God.

Maku advised leaders to desist from dividing people along ethnic and religion lines only to steal public funds.

He explained that no religion encourages corruption, therefore no one should use religion and thereafter steal government money.

Maku added: “If you claim to be religious, the virtue of your religion should manifest on how you manage the affairs of the state or country and not just lip service."

He promised to operate a government that would be corruption-free and ensure justice to all, if elected governor.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Nasarawa state, Labaran Maku, promised to end insecurity in the state, if elected in 2019.

Maku, a former minister of information, made the promise on Friday, December 21, while addressing some internally displaced persons in Akon, Obi local government area.

He said that he would ensure that peace returns to all parts of the state within his first 100 days in office.

Maku, who is also the national secretary of APGA, said that his administration would convene a peace, unity and security summit, where the template for the restoration of peace and the people’s integration would be fine-tuned.

He added: “By the grace of God and the commitment of my government, we will make sure that no community is taken over by any militia group.

“We will make the state too hot for any militia group to operate; we will also defend our people in all parts of the state from attacks."
