The Kogi State Deputy Publicity Secretary Of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Mr. Alamoh Kehinde Samuel has described Governor Yahaya Bello’s declaration for a second term in office as an insult on Kogites at home and abroad.
Reacting after Bello’s official declaration, Alamoh described the governor’s action as insensitive.
“Bello does not care about the yearnings and pains of the masses. He has brought untold hardship on the masses.
“My attention has been drawn to Governor Yahaya Bello’s formal declaration to seek for second term in office come November. In as much as he has the right to vie for any elective position as expressed in our constitution, his official declaration to seek for a second tenure in office is an insult to the sensitivity of Kogites who have been subjected to abject penury and untold hardship.
“This is the same Governor who was given the slot on a platter of gold but misused the golden opportunity by plunging the state into huge debts, lamentable hunger and financial recklessness. Obviously, we can’t trust such a man for another four year term.
“The Bello / APC led state government has brought excruciating pains and debilitating poverty on Kogites. They have nothing good to offer the ordinary people out there who were forced to accept a government they never voted into power in 2015.
“It will be a shame if the APC as a party will not consider the interest and wellbeing of Kogites as a precondition for selecting her flagbearer but rather will consider the interest of a few cabal who are hell bent on continued enslavement of Kogites,” he said.
Alamoh called on Kogi electorate to rise up and say no to APC’s brand of wicked and vindictive governance.
“We must put an end to this inept leadership. It is a case of no retreat, no surrender,” Alamoh stressed.
