Kogi: Hand over Yahaya Bello to EFCC – Okai to Ododo


A political activist, Usman Okai Austin has cautioned Governor Usman Ododo of Kogi State against being hypocritical and obstructing anti-graft war.


Okai charged Ododo to demonstrate his dedication to fighting corruption by taking concrete steps to hand over former governor Yahaya Bello to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, for investigation.


In a statement he signed, the political activist questioned Ododo’s commitment to fighting corruption, particularly in light of allegations that he is protecting Bello.


Criticizing the recently enacted Kogi State anti-corruption bill, Okai accused Ododo of hypocrisy and labeled the legislation as a mockery of the entire anti-corruption system.


Okai highlighted a recent incident where Ododo was reportedly seen “accompanying Bello to a Sallah celebration in Okene, despite Bello’s alleged involvement in corrupt activities.


“This perceived complicity has raised concerns about the governor’s true intentions in the fight against corruption and has prompted calls for him to take decisive action to uphold the rule of law.


“As a prominent figure in Kogi State politics, it is imperative that governor Ododo addresses these concerns and takes concrete steps to demonstrate his commitment to combating corruption and promoting good governance in Kogi State.


“Despite his declaration to ‘attack corrupt practices and make it impossible for corruption to thrive,’ his actions suggest otherwise.


“To genuinely demonstrate his dedication to fighting corruption, Governor Ododo must take concrete steps, such as handing Yahaya Bello over to the EFCC for investigation.


“Until then, his actions will be seen as hypocritical and obstructing the anti-corruption war.


“We urge Governor Ododo to practice what he preaches and take meaningful action against corruption by handing over the wanted Bello to the EFCC.”
