As the November 11th date approaches, Nigerians are eagerly anticipating the Kogi State gubernatorial election. Among the prominent candidates vying for the position is Murtala Ajaka.
Born in 1981, Ajaka previously held the position of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Deputy National Publicity Secretary.

Subsequently, he was selected as the SDP’s candidate for the governorship race.
Details about his early life and family remain scarce, but it is known that Ajaka’s interests extend beyond politics. He has a fondness for cinema and counts Robert John Downey Jr. as his favorite actor and Natalie Portman as his favorite actress. Additionally, he has a preference for African cuisine and regards the United Kingdom as his favorite place.
Ajaka’s vision, as articulated in the SDP’s manifesto, revolves around an innovative program aimed at transforming Kogi State into a thriving center of opportunities. He envisions a future where all residents have access to high-quality education and healthcare, coupled with a business-friendly environment that supports entrepreneurship, fosters job creation, and boosts economic activity.
His comprehensive plan encompasses various infrastructure development initiatives designed to enhance connectivity across the state, stimulate trade and commerce, and attract investment.
