Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello on Monday said he does not
want to be distracted by calls for him to run in the 2023 presidential
election.
Speaking through his Chief Press Secretary, Nnogwu Sani
Mohammed at the ongoing security and economic summit of the Northcentral
Governors Forum in Makurdi, the Benue State capital, the Governor said he “is
focused on delivering the mandate of rebuilding Kogi State.”
According to Bello, ”his administration’s ability to curb
insecurity in Kogi State and massive youth empowerment has been attracting
support leading to the calls” for him to contest for presidency come 2023 but
maintained that he does “not want to be distracted with” such calls.
The Governor called on the people to give him the needed
support to deliver his second term promises to the people of Kogi State.
Bello said “the issue of the 2023 presidency should not be
put on the front burner and heat the polity,” he said.
He assured the people that he is focused on his promises of
improved security and youth employment of the state.
Recall that the Kogi State Commissioner for Information and
Communication, Kingsley Fanwo, had said that there is a deafening call for
