His voters card is not valid for elections in Kogi state. the constitution requires that your voters card is registered in the place that you want to contest. but with his friend Malami supporting bello in all forms of illegality, they might use abuja power to force the tribunal judges to disregard the constitutional requirement. after all they supported him so far in the assembly matter where they supported 5 lawmakers against 15. even after a judge ruled that the 15 are the legitimate group, they are using the police to arrest them. a very sad development for Kogi and Nigeria.

seunlayi:
Kogi and Konji what is the difference

Esperooke:
Kogi has always been revelling in governance disaster.
Wada: naive and clueless but humane
Yaya Bello: arrogant, insensitive but seems somewhat proactive
Faleke: Tinubu's ambassador to Kogi, Kogi by blood but Lagosian per se...... But seems adept politically, and in governance.
The prayer is, God let the best ascend the throne. Kogites have suffered enough, its time to move forward.

MrMcJay:


Is it that he didn't have a voters card as at the time of elections or his voters card wasn't obtained in Kogi State?

asuneyi:
One major factor that the author of the article missed is that bello does not have a voters card- a critical requirement for contesting election. INEC erred in the first place by allowing bello to contest the election because he does not have a valid voters card. It is just like a candidate being snuck in to sit for jamb without a valid jamb registration. Any result he gets from the exam is invalid. It is just common sense. But This is the era of APC abracadabra. So let us wait and see

confluence:
For all the posters above me criticizing Yahaya Bello, Most of you guys are selfish, wicked and heartless being, for a state like kogi to have Over bloated civil service with outrageous monthly wage bill and several thousands of Ghost workers on it payroll, Yahaya Bello is the best thing to have happen to that state. Common township road that the former Governor Wada cannot do in 4 years, check out how bello is vigorously doing it with less thank six month in office. I

obge:
this case can make or mar democracy in this country. Imagine a scenario where a party fields a popular candidate just to win an election and just before the results are announced, the candidate is taken out so that the party can install a puppet candidate becoming the norm in Nigeria. If the tribunal rules for bello that is exactly what will start happening. there will also be no need for by elections in the case of death of a person holding an elective position e.g senator etc, the party can just choose anybody to replace the person.
Also it will also mean that anybody can contest election anywhere. So basically Governor of Katsina can be from Bayelsa etc because it will abolish the voters card requirement for election. so a rich godfather somewhere in Abuja can annoint 36 of his boys to contest for governor round the country regardless of wheteher they are registered voters or not.
another implication of a judgement for bello is that it can abolish the requirement to go into election with a deputy. As long as a candidate has the cooperation of INEC, he can run for election without a deputy and even govern without a deputy.
simply put- a judgement for bello is an invitation for anarchy not just in Kogi but in the whole of Nigeria. I pray the supreme court sorts this matter out ( i seriously doubt that the tribunal judge will have the guts to give a judgement that will go against bello because that will mean going against the power that be). lastly a judgement in bello will mean 8 more years of the cultism, impunity , insecurity and harassment that are fast becoming hallmarks of his administration.

obge:
Anything but bello. In just 5 months, bello has brought untold hardship to our state. God pls anything but bello. Reckless spending, cultists, insecurity etc are now the order of the day.

shegsky:
I await FAYOSE 's prophecy. Bello is a gooner no doubt.

afla:
From the positions juxtaposed between the three camps , Wada deserves declaratory judgment.

REASONS
The certificate of returns issued Bello transferred Audu's vote to Bello. That's action is in nulity.

That he entered the race without a defined deputy, he also acted in nulity.

That Yahaya Bello or Bello Yahaya is not a registered voter in Kogi State makes his decoration as governor most bizzarre

Faleke my man.
A dodged fighter,
a man of principle
and loyal deputy Governor to Audu, your case ended with the demise of Audu but you are material for the future.

As for Capt. Idris Ichalla WADA, victory is in the air.
The people are waiting, The expectations to your coming back with the loyal Deputy Awoniyi is palpable /thick in the air that it can be held both hands physically.
BECAUSE
If the faltered faulty footsteps of APC in the whole political lacuna vice-a-vise
the illegal substitution or nomination of Bello;

encouragement of Bello to enter the race without a defined deputy;

Allowing Bello to contest without ascertaining his voters card status;
Does not give the needed victory.
Then you will nail them through judicial precedence of forensic evidence. Oshimole, Mimiko, Aregbesola are serving governors by virtue of this legal window of prudence.

God shall manifest that from a true heart cos there is power in my tongue.

Iamsane:


Story that touch the Heart. I prophesy that you are among those people that will commit suicide after this year. So u want to be ruled by a dead man abi. Not when sane people like us are still alive. Go and die.

ijija:
This case is not about governance but about the following: was bello validly elected- no because he was not qualified to contest in the first place, also he did not have a deputy and lastly APC did not score the highest number of valid votes in the election. Even if it were about governance, he would have lost woefully. We have never had it so bad in kogi. Yahaya bello is just a fraud

muhyeenisce:
sorry no more space for Wada it's either Faleke or bellow
