Governor Bello has what it takes to rule
Commending the governor for this and other milestone achievements in the area, Ochidi noted that Bello is very capable of doing much more at the national level if he is given the chance to emerge as president in 2023.
He stated:
”We want to tell the world that we have a detribalised candidate, who is less than 50 years and has what it takes to rule this country.
”We have a governor who believes in infrastructure development and security of lives and property; a governor that matches his word with action.”
2023: Why younger generation should take over
Meanwhile, Bello had said that the time was ripe for the younger generation to take over from the elders who are currently holding power at the federal level.
Receiving the leadership of the Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE) led by its president, Mustapha Isa at the Kogi state Governor’s Lodge in Abuja, on Tuesday, September 28, Governor Bello said there was a need for the youth to take over the affairs of the country.
Bello noted that the issue of power shift to another region was borne out of ethnic sentiment and breached the provisions of the constitution.
