“Yahaya Bello has not seen/been/visited the areas nor the whole of Kogi East Senatorial district.

“He is only interested in earning money to spend in the villa, on the sycophantic loud mouth around him, the APC National Secretariat, and the Fani Kayodes of this world.”

Alex Kadiri stated that as a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress, he wondered what the party would campaign with, given that Yahaya Bello has failed completely in Kogi State.

He said the last election was won through guns and a compromised security, while expressing concern at the turn of events in Kogi State, he added that efforts to correct mistakes in order to strengthen APC in Kogi under Yahaya Bello has failed.

He said: “I am APC, but I am waiting to see what the Party should be campaigning with in Kogi. Yahaya Bello is said to have won the last election through the use of AK 47 rifles, the Police and compromised INEC.

“The story is a long one. I have shouted, written and petitioned, appeared before 2 Reconciliation Committees set up by the APC National.

“Kogi money had been used to brush aside all our attempts to help APC and Yahaya Bello”, he concluded.
