Kogi Charade Continues: Deputy Governor Took Oath Of Office At Governor's Private Home

Kogi state has totally downgraded to the state of lawlessness under the APC. The fourth democratic dispensation in kogi state kick-started on a wrong note, with the historical substitution of Yahaya Bello, his controversial inheritance of late Abubakar Audu's votes leading to his swearing in without a deputy.

History was made again yesterday but in a negative style as the deputy governor of Kogi state, Simon Achuba took his oath of office at the private resident of the governor, Yahaya Bello.

Immediately after the confirmation of Achuba by the state assembly, the media ran down to the private resident of the governor where they were told to proceed to the government house while perpetuating this illegality in the dark. On getting to the gate of the government house, armed policemen prevented the journalist from going into the government house premises while security operatives at the resident of the governor kept the media at bay. As the media were locked outside, our eagle eye cameraman got the picture of the swearing to us which took place at the sitting room of Yahaya Bello.
Since his swearing in, Bello has refused to operate from Lugard house - the official seat of Government in Kogi.
This charade has gone too far, we call on all Kogites to rise up in defence of our dear state before it totally collapse.

Fairplus adding more issues to his woes..the Supplementary Governor of Kogi State

This impunity should not be tolerated.

why must every thrash be posted on nairaland, Is there anywhere the constitution which stated that swearing in must be carried out at a particular venue? Get facts before you come here to post nonsense u hate when Nigerians rely on hear say and not hear facts

Great action

Bello played Tinubu's Faleke like a toy.

It can only be good for Kogi people because in Faleke, they risked having their money sent to Lagos at every turn to pay the Jagaban of corruption.

I endorse this move.

IT gov and deputy

Hmmmm

APC=Change. D type of change u never wished for, APC scaming Nigeria since 2015

nn

Ok nah.
Sitting room politics...
We dey watch the people of Change!

I don't think location matters in this case. what matter most is the process as stipulated in the Constitution.

If u are calling people to rise up, what are u trying to tell them? to go face security and die like the biafra guys?

A lot of impunity in this administration

Kai Chanji!

Typical illiterate.

That doesn't look like a sitting room.
bad journalism.

You were locked outside and your eagle eye camera caught the event. But that picture looks like you were in the room. And i can see other camera men there.

They should have used the kitchen

Congratulations!

Kogi people are the reason why the state is not moving forward ~Nwa_Nsukka

Welcome to Nigeria

Ghen Ghen Ghen!!!!!!. Nigeria I hail thy.

Real farce unfolding at Kogi. They'll still get away with it and nothing will happen. This is Nigeria after all, anything goes.
