The camp of Social Democratic Party governorship candidate in Kogi State, Murtala Ajaka, has again accused Governor Yahaya Bello of orchestrating the recent attack on their convoy in Lokoja.

“The car also stopped to greet some people. One of them is a commissioner in Yahaya Bello’s government. His name is Bashir Gegu. You remembered I told you he just left the APC?

“The only thing that saved him was that the car was an armoured car. The bullets that rained on the car didn’t penetrate. But not every other person was as lucky as he was. It was an orchestrated attack. A senior advocate of Nigeria, Shuaibu Aruwa, was affected. His own car was penetrated.” He claimed that the reason why the Kogi governor became too powerful was that he was indulged by former President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari , who never intervened in any reported violence in the state.
