Leading Kogi Governorship aspirant in the coming November election says he has been vindicated by claims by the Kogi State Deputy Governor, Simon Achuba that the Governor has failed the people of the State and has brought the reputable Party APC to complete disrepute among Kogi electorates and do not deserve to be the party flag-bearer for November election.
Jibrin who addressed Kogites on Tuesday morning said claims by Simon Achuba on Channels Television that Governor Bello has imported illegal fire arms and distributed same to his killer squad and has foolishly squandered the state 38months statutory allocation, excess crude oil and VAT to the tune of N294b, thereby leaving civil servants and infrastructural development in the State in a pitiful and abject condition is clear vindication that everything I said about rescuing our great party APC and Kogi State from the Governor is the truth. It may appear outlandish and unbelievable at first, but eventually, these claims have vindicated me.
Note that the Paris club refund of N23.22b and bailout funds of N50.8b are not part of the N294b as stated by the Deputy Governor. This funds have been ludicrously squandered by the Governor and his cronies. This is indeed ridiculous, evil, satanic and unacceptable. Kogi people must rise up now to take their destiny into their hands.
As everyone can see very clearly, it is unambiguously clear that Governor Bello is set to destroy our great party APC in Kogi State and we are also set out to stop him by every legal means available.
Simply put, how can a Governor receive the above humongous amount of resources and still owe workers and pensioners for over two years without any infrastructural development. As at the moment, Bello conducted workers screening and has reduced the State workforce but still could not pay the workers and pensioners he had cleared despite receiving same amount of resources before and after the said screening.
“The incontrovertible truth is that Yahaya Bello has failed the people and he must therefore be shown the exit door out of Kogi Government house .
We are not surprise that his own deputy corroborated the news making the rounds that he has imported and distributed illegal arms to his gunmen because we already have it on good authority how the same Bello imported the illegal arms into the State few weeks ago, delivered the arms to his thugs in Lokoja, then relocated the arms after security operatives stormed the residence of one of his most dangerous thugs in Lokoja, Jibrin said.
