Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State has on Saturday, April 2 officially joined the 2023 Presidential race.
Bello officially declared his decision to run for the Presidency in the presence of members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and supporters of Governor Bello who filled the space at the Eagle Square in Abuja.
His declaration lays to rest speculations surrounding him running for the Presidency in 2023.
The occasion was witnessed by some eminent Nigerians like Senator Jonathan Zwingina, Femi Fani-Kayode, among others.
Speaking, Zwingina described the Presidential aspirant as a detribalized Nigerian, who governs Kogi with appointees from other states.
Stressing that Nigeria needs Bello as a President, Zwingina noted that the “governor uprooted insecurity from Kogi, the state would have been a breeding ground for kidnapping and banditry, but for his leadership skills.”
More details to come.
