Opinion: The Shenanigans Of Yahaya Bello Must End In 2017 - By Sen. Dino Melaye


The hypocrisy of the Yahaya Bello-led government in Kogi is appalling. Few weeks ago when I spearheaded the donation of relief materials particularly rice to the needy civil servants in the state as a result of being owed several months of salaries, Bello unleashed his boys to discredit my humanitarian gesture by insinuating that I have turned my state - Kogi state - to an IDPs camp.
A state government that need publicity and image laundering will definitely celebrate sharing of rice to less than 2% of her people. Apart from Kogi State, please which other state will a Public Officer celebrate rice sharing as a major achievement?
Meanwhile, the year 2017 has come to an end, how many projects were commissioned across the state in the outgoing fiscal year?
When will President Buhari, whose name is always dropped in Kogi State than any other political officeholder, come to Kogi to commission projects executed by Yahaya Bello?
Anyway, the days of his shenanigans in the Confluence State are numbered and it is just a matter of time when glorious light will appear at the end of the tunnel and illuminate the lives of my fellow Kogites.
For the records, other governors share 50kg bags of rice in hundreds of thousands but do it quietly. Yahaya Bello should put up his thinking cap and repent. Deception destroys! Only truth can set us free.
