It is obvious that APC do not value the lives of people. All the popular, capable candidates has been screened out to give YAHAYA Bello a smooth sailing. Kogi people obviously know what to do

Kogites only choice now is PDP, they have more popular and capable candidates. It's crystal clear that APC is a satanic party that doesn't have kogites interest at heart. I think Adams will have sense and correct the bad role Oyegun played in the coronation of Yeye Bello as the Governor of Kogi state. But Adams is following APC evil plan to the letter.

I can see Dino vs Bello laslas


Let Nairalanders decide..
Like for Dino Melaye
Share for Yahaya Bello

You're correct.
APC has screened itself out of Kogi

Dino all the way

Cool one..well,let the Best man WIN.

If yOu need Original pure honey.

Call or whatsapp me on 081 0166 6771

Oshiomhole is a corrupt national chairman. Only God knows how much he has collected as bribe from Yeye Bello

I just tire for everything

Dino my guy

this matter was thrashed on journalist hangout yesterday

The people left to compete with Yahaya are not heavy weights and will lose

Dino may not have interest in senate again but he won't want a Smart Adeyemi there or anyone who's not in the same party with him.

While dealing with the issue of his senatorship he may need to put his all in the governorship race

That said,
Dino may not be the answer for Kogi but he seems better than Yahaya
Dino may elevate to start acquiring jets and helicopters
Anyone who knows Lokojo and Okene will know how Yahaya used his first tenure to build his house that blocked a route to Abj
But will Dino be better

Kogi is large, diverse and strategic in the geography and economy of Nigeria but besides knowing states and capitals, no one knows or hears about Kogi

Many people dread the part of Kogi while traversing North to south

When it's supposed to be a conference, confluence and convergence of the entire Nigeria, but see where the leaders have relegated Kogi to?
It's a shame a scam an abnormally

I beg Kogites close your eyes to tribe, region and religion and vote someone who will truly transform Kogi to the best state it's supposed to be

Dino Eleniyan

If the party finds Babatunde Irukera fit enough to be appointed as head of a very important federal government agency, I really don’t think there is any sense in disqualifying him from seeking the party’s governorship ticket. Nonsense decision.

dino will be dancing now

No difference btw PDP and APC,they r different mother bt one father

Obviously, the APC is not interested in winning Kogi.

Kofi is APC and APC is Kofi
Igbos keep off this thread and channel your badluck on your PDP

I will deal with any ipob that mess up on this thread.

Igbos be warned

What is the criteria for the Screening?

Yaya Bello is trying something funny

If he likes he can buy all the APC members in the state but he cant buy all the electorates in the Governorship election. What am i even saying sef, the people of Kogi state that i know are in a covenant in poverty.

With #500 per voter the election will just be a walk over for him.

When you see youths singing praises of Dino, you understand why Nigeria is irredeemable.

Any screening that couldn't screen out yahaya bello who had a crime of double pvc registration is already a compromised committee.

Antipob777:
Kofi is APC and APC is Kofi
Igbos keep off this thread and channel your badluck on your PDP

I will deal with any ipob that mess up on this thread.

Igbos be warned

If Yayaha bello of apc is what you boast of, ipob totally agree with you.

The way Yahaya Bello will flog IPOB Candidate, Dino Melaye in the election.

I tell you. The most annoying thing is that you'll see the likes of Yarimo celebrating this obvious injustice.

Trustme2:

Gov. Yahaya Bello will crush anything possible for his re-election.


Yes Kogi people know what to do, but it's unfortunate that in Nigeria election is not about the people.


I so much feel for the people of Kogi state because they will need to suffer for another 4yrs under Gov Bello...they would have been lucky it the election were to be with the 2019 general election....so unfortunate, 20k militarymen 40k policemen, 30k DSS, 100k NSCD operatives, EFCC, NDLEA... Will all storm Kogi in Nov. to re-elect Gov. Yahaya Bello...I type this with pity for the people of Kogi state...take heart. This is 9ja for u.

Have Mercy On Me O LORD

The Mercy of GOD is what I will Describe as the "Weakening point" of GOD.

When Life seems to be against you, Approach GOD on the Basis of HIS Mercy

When you have done soo much evil and u feel u can't be Forgiven, Approach GOD on the Basis of HIS Mercy.

When you so feel so Abadoned and Empty, Approach GOD on the Basis of HIS Mercy

When you have done Everything that should be done and yet their is no Head way, Approach GOD on the Basis of HIS Mercy

When it seems you have been battered, Shattered and Scattered and Nothing works for you, Approach GOD on the Basis of HIS Mercy.

Many do not know this, but this is the fastest way to get Divine Intervention ..

No Matter How Battered you are , no matter the Failures you are Experiencing, No matter the Pains and silent cries life has thrown at you, Approach our ALMIGHTY FATHER on the Basis of Mercy. You Guaranteed a Turn around..

Say this Prayer of Repentance if you are not Born Again or you are yet to Accept JESUS CHRIST . Afterwards Approach GOD for Whatever you desire on the Basis of HIS Mercy..

CONFSUED MOFOS, FROM THE NO 1 TO THE LEAST MEMBER DOWN TO NAIRALAND ZOMBIES

Hmmm

Kogi should elect best
