An All Progressives Congress  (APC) gubernatorial aspirant in Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, monday described the state as the weeping child of Nigeria.

Bello, who spoke in Abuja, explained that the level of underdevelopment in the state is so very glaring and that it will require a visionary leader to boldly tackle the developmental challenges confronting the state.

He said: “Today, the wind of change is sweeping across Nigeria. Every facet of our lives is experiencing this positive change.  The long touted and elusive dividends of democracy is finally reaching the people of Nigeria.  Kogi State cannot afford to be left behind. Kogi State cannot continue to be among the worst performing states in Nigeria.  Kogi State indigenes must take up the challenge to change the fortunes of the state. We must choose the right candidate to lead Kogi State in the next gubernatorial election.

“The choice for who leads Kogi State for the next four years is very clear. We cannot continue to entrust our collective future to political cabals, people who have shown us that they cannot be trusted with the welfare of our people.  What we need now in Kogi State is not mere electoral promises.

What we need is a visionary leadership.  Someone who understands what governance is and has the political will to change the fortunes of the people of Kogi State.”

Bello popularly referred to fair plus, further said, “those who know me, know that I have the requisite qualities to lead Kogi.  I am a simple man.  One who believes in the rule of law, fairness and equal treatment of my fellow man.  I want to lead Kogi because it deserves a governor who has a well thought-out and structured developmental roadmap for the state.  The era of paying lip service to development is over.  Now we must walk the talk.  We must be ready to back up our words with action. Now we must take our destinies into our hands. The choice is ours.  We must choose wisely.”
