The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has insisted that the Kogi State governor, Yahaya Bello, and his administration has done nothing to merit any form of commendation.
National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, who spoke for the party, described the governor as a colossal failure and catastrophic bad luck that cannot point to any development project he implemented for the benefit of the people.
The PDP spokesperson, in a statement by the Assistant Director (Head of Unit), Publicity Department, Richard Ihediwa, spoke during his tour of PDP formation in the state at the weekend.
He lamented that Governor Yayaha Bello has “stagnated and turned Kogi into the most backward state in the country, with so much devastation, infrastructural decay, poverty and institutionalized hopelessness.”
The PDP spokesperson dismissed as a “hopeless lie” the false news being circulated by the Kogi government that he was commended by the PDP through Ologbondiyan for a road project, saying that such “cannot even happen in their pipe dream as Yahaya Bello has done absolutely nothing to merit any form of commendation.”
Ologbondiyan said: “It is indeed pathetic that Yahaya Bello has resorted to fake news in his desperate forum shopping for unmerited approval.
“The resort to fake news has further exposed his childishness and pathetic desperation to use patriotic Nigerians in his search for undeserved endorsement.
“I have but pity for Yahaya Bello and I advise him to desist from such childishness and irresponsible actions. There is nothing to commend him about. Nothing! He has brought only pain, hardship and stagnation to Kogi state.”
The PDP spokesman counselled Governor Yahaya Bello to “repent and utilize the resources of the people of Kogi state for their benefit including infrastructural recovery as well as paying workers and pensioners whose salaries and entitlements have been wickedly withheld for years”
Ologbondiyan urged the people of Kogi State and Nigerians at large to continue in rallying with the PDP, particularly as the party opens its e-registration exercise in furtherance of the collective effort to rescue the nation from the lies, misrule and stranglehold of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
