The Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) in Kogi state has described as an aberration, the public holiday declared by the government in honour of the return of President Mohammadu Buhari.

The party in a statement by the Director Research and Documentation, Achadu Dicson, lamented that while it is an acknowledged fact that governance in the state had drifted in the last 17 months, declaring a public holiday in the state is the height of lack and loss of ideas.

Achadu said while governance in the state had been brought to its lowest ebb, with workers owed salaries and pensions for 17 months, the heavy indebtedness by the state to commercial banks to the tune of N35billion was worrisome.

The party said the state has nothing to show in terms of infrastructure for the high indebtedness.

While noting that as a party, the PDP shared in the health recovery of Mr President, and has always joined in the prayers for his quick recovery, loss of man hour with the declaration of a public holiday was an indication that the state had reached the lowest ebb in terms of governance.

The statement read, “The recent government action shows that we have entered a one chance administration in which the ship of state is heading to no direction.”

The PDP in the statement said rather than devote energy to pray for Mr President, citizens should pray for God to heal Kogi state, noting that the state has lost focus, and is losing the decency of comity of serious States in the country.

May sense fall on Kogi Government and her people

That is even my fear too

State Governor declaring public holiday to mark the cluelessness of APC ADMINISTRATION. I weep for my country

I wondered how this guy ended up becoming the governor of my dear state.

Yahaya Bello is disgusting.

This public holiday funny Sha

Only in Nigeria we aren't really informed about the implications of the unnecessary public holidays to our economy.
Kogi state is a struggling state in terms of finance yet public holidays are been declared?? height of unseriousness in governance by that young governor?

Yahaya Bello knows he has failed woefully as a governor, so he has decided to concentrate on doing eye service to buhari's family as a ticket to his second term.

But why would any sane society celebrate a man who promised to scrap medical vacation abroad if elected but ends up being the longest ever president on medical vacation abroad. That we are even celebrating and not asking for accountability shows that something has gone wrong with us as a people

How can you stop people's business bcs someone return... How is buhari's return going to feed them? Smh

Is Bello a Governor?
Just a stooge

The guy was not ready for leadership, he only happened upon it! God help my dear state.

With this kind of 'youth' at the helm of affairs of a state, do you wonder why political geriatrics are refusing to relinquish power?

Shame..
