National Chairman ‎of the Kogi State Youth Roundtable, Comrade Austin Usman Okai has advised Governor Yahaya Bello to focus on delivering dividends of democracy to citizens of the state and reduce his over-reliance on President Muhammadu Buhari.
Okai gave the advise on Friday in Calabar while addressing a coalition of students and other youth groups on the imperatives of being alive to their civic ‎duties.
In reaction to statements credited to Bello that he is ready to jump into fire if the President ask him to, Okai stated that the political destiny of Kogi State governor lies solely in the voting power of Kogites.
The youth activist said Bello should not see his relationship with President Buhari as a blanket guarantee for a second term in Lugard House.
According to Comrade Okai, “the Kogi State Governor has lost every iota of purposeful leadership and direction. ‎What we have in Kogi State is worse than Somalia. The man is in power inside Government House but he is not in charge of the affairs of state. Those in charge are the worst apples in the basket of rotten apples. They are disconnected from the people. He has failed himself, his people and the youth of Nigeria.
“Gov. Bello has consistently refused to see the big picture and today, he believes reducing himself of the assistant janitor of Aso Rock will give him a return ticket. ‎His short political destiny is not in the hands of President Buhari, it is in the hands Kogi people. It has been decided and sealed. If he gets the APC ticket, he will encounter an epic organized resistance at the polls.
“Bello is new in the art of sycophancy. He is an amateur praise singer. Not only is he new, he is an unintelligent slow learner who due to sheer inexperience does not know where to draw the line and which fight not to get involved in.
“Yahaya Bello is not qualified to serve water at the table where statesmen like Bola Tinubu are having dinner. Not only has Tinubu been a senator, he is the architect of modern Lagos and has nurtured what was a tribal party into a national brand. What did Yahaya Bello achieve for himself as an individual before he became governor?
“Rather than picking all kinds of fights and making more enemies for President Buhari, who has his own assignments clearly cut out, Gov. Bello should commit whatever time he has left to salvaging his already battered image on the home front by ensuring payment of backlog of salaries and other benefits to civil servants, securing Kogi State against robbery, assassination and kidnapping, discontinuing attempts to sell choice assets of the state to himself via proxies and taming the waves of bloody confrontations between natives of Kogi State and armed herdsmen,” he said.
