David Lyon, governor-elect of
Bayelsa state, says he was awarded Nigeria’s best governor in 2019 without
taking oath of office.
Lyon won the governorship
election in Bayelsa in November, 2019 and he is yet to assume office.
The governor-elect said this in
an undated video shared by a parody account of President Muhammadu Buhari on
Tuesday.
It is not clear which
organisation gave him the award.
But while describing the award as
“the work of God”, Lyon said he is not used to receiving recognition and that
he only accepted it because of “you people”.
“Not even entering to the office,
not being sworn in as the governor, I was awarded the best governor of the year
2019 and that is the work of God,” he said.
“I’m not used to receiving
awards, award is not the best – if not you people I would have not taken this
award.”
