An Outsider’s Unpopular Opinion On Kogi State And Governor Yahaya Bello by Oziamodu11: 6:19am On Jan 07, 2021
I would clearly love to state from this onset that I am not from Kogi State and most importantly, I am a card carrying member of the Peoples Democratic Party. After undertaking a short visit to Kogi at the invitation of my very good friend, Robert Arome Eboh, it is important I give my honest assessment of the situation I met on ground. Robert has been my very good friend since my secondary school days, we have both participated in protests, peaceful marches and share a similar view when it comes to politics. In 2019, Robert worked with me as the director of contact and mobilization for the Progressive Youths Initiative of Nigeria, a support group for former vice president Atiku Abubakar. As an activist, he has been one of most dedicated people I know, you can’t buy him. Robert constantly led series of attacks on the government of Yahaya Bello in its early days. He was a strong critic of the government. During the 2019 elections, Robert called me one Sunday afternoon and as we were drinking, he opened up and said, “Mike, I have been criticizing wrongly, Bello has been a product of a negative media attack by the PDP”. I was shocked to hear this. I wondered and asked if it was the same Bello that was owing workers and he said “I took a trip to Kogi after 8months of not traveling, I could not recognize my community. Good roads among other amenities. The PDP never did this things for us. When I spoke to my leader, Austin Okai, he said we shouldn’t care, all we want is to get back power.” READ Tinubu Respects Me As Buhari’s Political Son – Bello I advised Robert that if what is on ground is better than what is in the media, then it is his duty to tell people the truth. He told me that people will say he has been bought and I told him that a clear conscience fears nothing. On the salary issue, Robert found out that the past government had thousands of ghost workers on its payroll and Bello was not committed in allowing such to happen. He wanted all workers to be digitally identified and they said he was owing workers. Who in their right senses will just wake up and owe workers for months? A year and six months later, as he took me round Kogi State, I was impressed with what I saw on ground. Recently, the economic numbers coming out of Kogi has been great. Robert showed me at least a project done in each LGA by this government. Something that has been lacking in previous administrations.

all these paid media supporter are worst than devil by misleading people. So you did not travel with your phone to take picture of the good work that boy is doing. Can you mention name of project that yaya bello has commissioned. Can you mention on economic economics or developmental policy that he has initiated. Pls medical should stop packaging bad products to us. If bello want to be a president he should wake up from his dream. Nigerian are now wiser

Ok..when you see such fallacy in the future you ignore it and don't try further to propagate the falsehood especially here....there are people who are directly or indirectly affected by Bello's maladministration and it would be an insult to their person and plight...
