Bello said he emerged for the proper and rapid development of the state.
He made the remark on Thursday at the presentation of an award to Solomon Anyegwu, provost, College of Health Science and Technology, Idah.
The National Youth Council (NYC) presented Anyegwu with the ‘Best Performed Head of Health Institutions’’ in the North central’.
Represented by Victor Adoji, his special adviser on youths, sports and students affairs, Bello said his emergence was divine and nobody could claim to have influenced it as his god-father.
He said corruption and nepotism, as well as indiscipline occasioned undue influence of “god-fatherism”, had brutalised the state and undermined its development in recent years.
The governor promised to right the wrongs of the past.
