Governor Yahaya Bello speaks out
over 3-month quit notice to Igbo
people

- The three-month notice
handed Igbos in the north to
quit has continued to cause
tension across the Nigeria

- Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi
said his state is very safe for
Igbo people just as he promised
to ensure their security

Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi has
urged Igbo people in the state to
remain calm as sthey remain
partners-in-progress.

In reaction to a three-month
notice on the people of the south-
east to quit the north, Governor
Bello also promised to continue to
protect the interest of the Igbo
people in the state.

Speaking through his
spokesperson, Kingsly Fanwo, in
Lokoja, the capital of the state,
Bello said: “As a nation, our
strength has always been
embedded in our unity in diversity.

Governor Yahaya Bello said he
would ensure Igbo people in Kogi
state are protected

“Nigeria is home to all and we
must continue to see ourselves as
brothers and sisters in a united
nation.

“Ethnic segregation is
unacceptable to humanity and we
must continue to wax stronger
and unbroken as a nation. The God
that created Nigeria is a God who
believes in the strength of unity.

“The Kogi state government
under the leadership of Alh
Yahaya Bello wishes to assure all
Igbos that they are not only safe
in the state, but that the
administration will continue to consider Igbos resident in the state
as partners in the ‘New Direction
Agenda’ of the government.

“Igbos should go about the
legitimate businesses in the state
as they continue to contribute to
our economy as a state and a
people.

“With the appointment of Igbos
into strategic positions in Kogi
state, we are making a strong case
for social integration in Nigeria.

“Let me once more salute the
courage and nationalism of the
Kaduna state governor who has
shown with his recent actions that
Kaduna will remain the home of all
nationalities,” he said.

Asking the leaders in the north to
continue to defend the interest of
the country by securing the lives
of the people of other tribes, Bello
said: “As we strive to move out
of the economic recession in Nigeria, bloodbaths would only
compound the situation.

“We are the same before God
and we should always play up the
factors that unite us. We can only
be strong when we are united.”

He also begged Nigerians to
continue to pray for the full
recovery of President
Muhammadu Buhari.

“President Buhari has sacrificed a lot to ensure we remain a
respected nation in the comity of
nations.

“Nigerians should pray for his full recovery as he is determined to tame corruption and drive the
nation toward prosperity,
responsibility and respectability."

Good Bello but don't extend the Gesture to Biafra. Biafra is unconstitutional and illegal. Anyone calling himself or herself a Biafran is a Fellon and a seditious Character.
Nnamdi Kanu must be thrown out of Nigeria now.
