According to him, Governor Yahaya Bello has been in a state of unrest since the past days over this development. He went further to say that the Governor christened the latest move by the Presidency is as betrayal of his loyalty to the government of Kogi state.

The President had become so worried that Governor Bello is yet to pay civil servants and pensioners their earnings since he assumed office as Governor of Kogi state despite over Two hundred billion naira he has received as statutory allocation, bailout funds, Paris club refund and other revenues accrued to the state.

Meanwhile, findings from this medium showed that the Presidency got frustrated by the reports from Kogi state and complaints from some appointees of the federal government officials from Kogi state where they complained that the attitude of Yahaya Bello may cost the All Progressive Congress 2019 election.

A Special Adviser to the President who is also a member of the kitchen cabinet of the President, informed this medium that the President became frustrated after he was informed that since the inception of the Bello’s administration he has not instituted, completed or commissioned any project. The President concern was facilitated by the non payment of salaries by the government,

“The President is not happy with Bello and he has barred him from participating in any activities in the State House, that is why he wasn’t invited when the President received nomination form that NCAN presented from him and he wasn’t invited to accompany the President to submit the form to the party secretariat”, the presidential aide stated.
