The Kogi commissioner for information and communication, Kingsley Fanwo says many people have asked Yahaya Bello, governor of Kogi, to rin for president in 2023.

In a Twitter post on Saturday, Fanwo said the desire of Nigerians for a great country aligns with that of Bello, “so we know the deafening calls will bring about a defining moment for our nation.”

“The people are calling on him to run for president but he has not come out clearly to tell us whether he is accepting that clarion call or not.

“All over the six zones, we are having a lot of people calling on him to come and run. If you look at the people calling on him, it cuts across all parties and is not just an APC thing.

“He is a unifier. He is very capable and qualified, he perfectly fits into that bracket of what Nigeria wants.” The commissioner said to The Cable

He has shown that the youth can provide quality leadership in Nigeria,” Fanwo said, citing what he said are some of the governor’s biggest achievements so far in Kogi.

“In Kogi, we have diverse ethnic groups which were not unified; there was the challenge of insecurity and underdevelopment, but he came in 2016 and was able to unite the state.

“When you look at the economy, he has been able to inject a lot of dynamism into the economic management of the state and we are also looking into agriculture” The Commissioner said further.

Governor Bello is currently serving his second tenure in office, after being sworn in, in 2015.
