Just as we have thought that we had gotten the finest of all governorship aspirants in the forthcoming November kogi state governorship elections, another huge suppressed have just hit the political arena, marching up the governorship race to be the biggest of all in Kogi history.
If you have been reading my stories so far you will understand that I talked about three major aspirants that might push a treat to Bello’s candidacy from the peoples democratic party.
Engineer Musa Wada, Mohammed Adah Shaibu Tettes and Abubakar Ibrahim Idris are the three formidable PDP strong forces that can at anytime stand the Bello battle, money for money, contact for contact and political structure for political structure. We have done our research and confirmed that if the PDP makes the mistake of fielding a wrong person against Bello the battle will have to be transferred to another candidate possibly using another party for the mission.
Bello have been in the news lately because of the public show of shame we have seen carried out by some local fathers and traditional rulers in the state. It is a very clear manifestation that sources have said that every endorsement Bello have received so far is fear of dethronement and money oriented. As far as kogi state is concerned the votes of the people must count this time around and no royal father has the right to endorse any person for the seat of the governor if really peace is what all parties should go for. They are all doing the endorsement for the sake of their personal pockets and not for the good of the people. Kogi state have always suffered in every electioneering year because of this kind of money buying royal fathers syndrome. Moreover Bello and the APC in the national have all the cash to drop for whosoever will wish to push in support. But if you ask me I will say its not the fault of the traditional rulers to always want to publicly say yes to a seating governor who controls everything in a state with the powers backing him by our old fashioned constitution. At least we have seen what the Kano state governor did some few days ago to a world class most respected emir of KANO Lamido Sanusi. Bello can do the same to whosoever he likes as far as he remains the kogi state governor and if anyone of them refuse to do the endorsement thing surely they would be labelled as an opposition against his return to office. They will be tagged as Bello's enemies for sure and even if Bello doesn’t dig them out of power his boys who love to hold on to power will do the job without Bello’s knowledge.
Honestly, the governorship race of Kogi state is going hotter and with men like Abdulrazaq Baba Emeje who just became the newest man seeking the number one seat of the state, hails from the most powerful political block of dekina local government area in kogi state, kogi east to be precise.
He’s a youth with so much energy and action, a lot of people ask why he’s just coming into the race and our source said his answers were that the polity is heated with unqualified, incapable, inexperienced and haters of democracy and the people of kogi state in general are lacking a man with dignity and integrity to rule the people.
The grey hair beaded Abdulrazaq was quoted to have also said that his candidacy is crafted and carved to be totally about the people of kogi state. My people have suffered so much from the hands of wrong men running the affairs of governance and this has made the state’s name printed in the darkest books of backward states in Africa.
Kogi is known as a state without any quality leadership over the years and we have decided to move that phase of our lives away from the minds of the people. We want a state that the world will come and do business with. A state that can pay salaries to the great civil servants as at when due. A kogi state that we all see with a dream of enjoying basic amenities like clean drinking water, free and compulsory education for our children from primary to secondary school level, free healthcare services to aged people, mother and children, free and sound environment for local and foreign investment so that our people can be gainfully employed and empowered.
We are still making researches on a possible element that can stand the Bello battle come November. We have seen some people running their mouths about aspirants who will give Bello the biggest fight of all and these men don’t even have what it takes to run a campaign office talk less of fighting a Bello that controls everything in the state b c. Coth the money, traditional forces and the boys on the street.
Abdulrazaq Emeje will likely fight off men like Engineer Musa Wada and Abubakar Idris to win the heart of the kogi east people to be able to beat off a Bello with a less troubled campaign team.
Bello is not an easy bone to break, not only because he’s the seating governor but a man who understands the politics of the state and has the total control of the palaces across the state.
Yahaya Bello, Abdulrazaq Emeje and Mohammed Tettes would just be the three most watched men in this governorship election in kogi state if the oto' ge' syndrome catches up with former governor Ibrahim Idris of the peoples democratic party PDP, Because the battle line is going to be tight for the PDP to produce a Wada or an Idris for the people to totally come out to support.
The people said Ibrahim Idris will lose this election if he allows both his son and son in law to step into the shoes of the PDP flag bearer. And this will surely cost the kogi PDP another lose of confidence. There’s no kogi state person that you ask about a Wada or Idris political dynasty to stand as the 2019 governorship candidate and will not say we are tired with them. The people have continued to say it. Let them present a new person for us and we shall all come out to support them. But if they give us a Wada or an Idris ,we shall surely show them the way out of the politics of kogi state for life. We shall adopt a new party and candidate and mobilise the people to push both PDP and the APC out of place. We have concluded and we shall do just that. The next governor of kogi state must be a man that has true love and value for people and his government shall be a government of the people. The people should come out to support a good person and not a stooge that would come into power with the aim of repaying anybody for the power honoured him by a godfather.
The people are saying that an Abdulrazaq Baba Emeje or a Mohammed Shaibu Tettes will be able to do a good job as governor in kogi, but out of the two pencilled down, we shall still tell you what we think can push them forward to be voted as the solid candidates to discard Bello out of power.
When we come next week we shall make you see others who will not even be allowed or able to get the intension form as an aspirant not to talk of been a contender.
Bello is a strong castle to be dismantled only if the gods of the land are in support of his removals but if the gods say its a bello again, come November we shall see the clear fight between the people and their gods. This battle will be very interesting to watch as a movie with a pot of popcorn and something to drink by your side as far as there will be no gun shoots like what we saw in rivers state where Wike and Ameachi acted as Rambo and Commando
