The recent attempts by governor Bello of Kogi state to ignite
romance with northern religious leaders mayq have
potentially predisposed the state to endemic religious crisis
regardless of its pious look.

Governor Bello had invited the Sultan of Sokoto and the Emir
of Zazzua alongside a renown Islamic scholar to
commission an ongoing building in the state tagged as
Revenue House. The building, according to some reliable
sources was still an ongoing project at the time of
commissioning.

Meanwhile, the invitation of those traditional leaders is seen
by some pundits as a political romance aimed at covering
Bello’s 365 days palpable failure and untold hardship which
his weak and puerile policy wrecked on the people of Kogi
state.

This is coming same day the state’s chapter of the ruling All
Progressive Congress, APC and concerned political leaders
in the state lampooned the Governor and passed a vote of
no confidence on him. According to them, Bello’s one year
in office has further retarded the economic fortune of the
state having squandered over 220 billion tax payers’ money
without evidential proof of any executed project . ............

.
It should be on record that I owe these respected traditional
rulers and the cleric a great deal of respect. However, the
rationale behind their honouring Bello’s invitation remains
eternally a puzzle and conundrum that cannot be unraveled.
Perhaps they were not properly briefed of the situations of
things in the state and that Governor Bello was merely using
their presence in the state as a means of plastering and
enveloping his awkward reigns and his gauche
administration.

The very fact that other traditional rulers and Christian
leaders were not part of Governor Bello’s scheme was
another issue that requires proper dissection given the
secularized nature of the state.

Though Bello and his handlers may have failed to learn from
history as Kogi state since creation has never witnessed
religion crisis nor attracted any acrimonious romance from
any state considering its secular nature but for Bello to have
extended his hand of fellowship only to Northern and Islamic
leaders without recourse to the secular nature of the state
where we have both Christians and Muslims, this indeed
portend great disaster for the state.

It remains to be seen why other Christian and traditional
leaders both within and outside the state were not deemed
to be invited alongside Bello’s northern allies who only came
as a cover up to his fiasco laden administration.

The visit of Bello’s Sultan and others has been seen by
some analysts as a technical enslavement of the state to
the northern Islamic leaders as it is widely believed that, the
north orchestrated his ride to the throne to pave way for
their domination in the state. However, this zigzag visitation
has validated the unventilated thought of the people................
