WHERE IS GOV. YAHAYA BELLO?

No doubt, there is palpable tension in Kogi state presently over the whereabout of the governor of the state, Alhaji Yahaya Bello.

To worsten the plight of the good people of the state there has been no official statement from Government nor handlers of the governor on this whereabouts.

Therefore, the people are forced to live by tales from the grapevine.

It would be recalled that since winning the widely asserted violence ridden elections in the state few weeks back the governor has not been seen in public functions.

Concern for the young governor hightened when he did not personally come to present the 2020 appropriation budget on Wednesday.

Other state functions, both within and outside the state, have also been shuned by the governor leaving the deputy governor, Chief Edward Onoja to stand in.

However, a twist to the narrative is that two prophets are said to have prophecied that though the governor would get reelected for a second term in office but would not be inaugurated.

Sources say, "Prophet Jeremiah from Owerri had said he saw the name of Governor Yahaya Bello changed with correcting fliud after winning the election, that he would not be inaugurated as governor after the election. Prophet Olobayo prophecied in Lagos that GYB would win the election through force but would not be there as a governor."

The question on the lips of everyone in Kogi right now is 'are these prophecies about to unfold, will Kogi state resurface in the news for the wrong reasons, again?".

The answers to these nagging questions will, no doubt be answered by time.
