Attack On Yahaya Bello's Convoy Foiled, As Governor Calls For Calm by Adeboye80(op): 3:27pm On Jun 03, 2023
Some suspected hoodlums on Saturday allegedly attacked the convoy of the Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello who was on his way from Abuja to Lokoja.

In a statement issued on Saturday by Kingsley Femi Fanwo, Commissioner for Information and Communications and made available to newsmen stated that the governor’s was blocked and attacked by people believed to be supporters of Alh Muritala Yakubu Ajaka at about 12.30 hours on Saturday.

The statement read as follows, The attack took place near the Naval Base, few kilometres from Lokoja where the convoy of Muritala Yakubu Ajaka, having sighted that of the Governor, blocked the road and some of his armed thugs started shooting sporadically at the convoy of the Governor.

A Tundra branded with the logo of the SDP and with SDP flags also blocked the Governor’s vehicle and occupants of the SDP-branded Tundra were armed with Rifles and short guns. The Governor left the scene unscathed and there is no cause for panic as the Governor is in high spirit

Some security aides and other aides attached to the Governor sustained some degrees of injuries and have been rushed to medical facilities for medical attention.

“We urge the people of Kogi State to remain calm as security agents are in full control to ensure the arrest of the hoodlums behind the attack. The State Government will ensure that law and order are maintained as the attackers will be brought to justice.

“The Governor has warned that no APC member should involve in any reprisal attack as insecurity from any quarter will be met with stiff penalties.

I do hope these politicians arming these lowlifes to go after their opponents know they can never get those guns back...!


You guys have made hoodlums and terrorists more armed and sophisticated than those hoodlums in uniform (Nigerian Police)!

When they stop getting their paychecks, we all know the next thing they would do with those Guns and weapons!


...And y'all will later wonder why insecurity worsens every administration!
