The Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has again threatened to use firepower on members of the opposition political parties in the state ahead of the 2023 general elections. Speaking on Tuesday in Ajaokuta after inaugurating a vigilante group, Bello said he was standing on the initial threat he made to deal with anyone saying bad things about his administration in the state.

Kogi Governor, Yahaya Bello Issues Fresh Threats To Use Firepower On Political Opponents Ahead Of 2023 ElectionsSpeaking on Tuesday in Ajaokuta after inaugurating a vigilante group, Bello said he was standing on the initial threat he made to deal with anyone saying bad things about his administration in the state.

A source told SaharaReporters that members of the vigilante group were being trained to do “dirty job” for the ruling All Progressives Congress and attack opposition parties before and during the elections."Be it in the state or the federal level and you think you have connection that you can use here in Kogi, unless it’s not I, Yahaya Bello that’s in charge of this government. I want to reinstate that the ‘Ira Chenyin’ I said the other time is something I mean,” the governor said.

This is coming a few weeks after Bello threatened members of the opposition political parties, saying he would"show" them. “That’s why I’m saying it loud and clear for everyone to hear. Not just Ihima, not just about Ebira but the whole of Kogi. Because some of those people who are prepared to do evil, maybe some of them are older than me.

In April 2021, violent youths working for the Kogi governor descended on two middle-aged protesters who were pasting Buhari-Must-Go posters in Lokoja.

Deji no go see this type, still too busy having nightmares...incase obi wins and really improves life. So he cannot do „give away“ to 1000 people on facebook again, with the 10 dollars he changes to naira.

And we wonder why this country cannot move. We the voters are the cause. We elect the most arrogant, twisted, thoughtless and unsuitable people into office; and are surprised when they become tyrants hell bent on ruling for life.
