Edward Onoja replaces Simon Achuba as Kogi Deputy Governor

The running mate to Governor Yahaya Bello in the November 16 governorship election for Kogi State, Edward Onoja, will be sworn in on Saturday as the new Deputy Governor of the state.

NAN reports that a seven-member Judicial Panel of Enquiry was set up by the State Chief Judge, Justice Nasir Ajanah, on August 26 to investigate the allegations of gross misconduct leveled against erswhile deputy governor Simon Achuba.
Chairman of the panel, Barrister John Baiyeshea, flanked by six other members of the panel, submitted the report to the Speaker, Prince Matthew Kolawole, at plenary.

Receiving the report, the Speaker, Matthew Kolawole, expressed appreciation to the chief Judge for appointing men of proven integrity as members of the panel.

Kolawole explained that the task of ensuring good governance required collective efforts of all, and thanked the members for the timely presentation of the report.

“We shall go into the reports thoroughly, look into the recommendations and do justice to it,” saying that the committee had gone into the annals of history in Nigeria as the first to perform a thorough work devoid of interference.

In his remarks, the Deputy Speaker of the House, Ahmed Mohammad (APC- Ankpa I), said the exercise followed due process and thanked everyone for being responsive to the development of Kogi.

NAN reports that the committee which was inaugurated on August 26 with a 90-day duration within which to complete the assignment and submit it’s report, completed the job in 49 days.

In other countries of that world, people campaign and boast with their achievements. In Nigeria, it is based on the number of people you can subdue and suppress. How can they proceed with this illegally?

After reading the Nation's report of how the state Assembly acted contrary to the panel set up by the Chief Judge of the state, it's a foregone conclusion that what the Assembly did is an illegality that cannot stand even the tiniest breeze of the law.

And not with the state Chief judge having some iron to grand with Bello.

Bello keeps bleaking his chances.

James Faleke’s decision to turn down the offer of becoming Yahaya Bello’s deputy was a great one. This is what would have happened to him.

The Kogi State house of assembly knew the impeachment of the deputy governor cannot stand judicial scrutiny but they still carried on with it because they knew there won’t be consequences for their legislative rascality.

No be politicians again?

Tomorrow they will start quarreling.

Why Deputy Governor? Why not Vice Governor like Vice President or Vice Chairman?

grin grin grin You'll be the deputy governor for just one month, hopefully. Kogi State deserves better than that idiot Yahaya Bello.

PS: I'm not affiliated to any political party. I just hate the glaring ineptitude of Bello

It's amazing how PDP and APC partisans including Youths, social media and Kogi indigenes are all united against Bello..

But the magic that would happen at the poll, you would imagine who voted who.
