"Yahaya Bello is Divinely choosen"
Alhaji Yahaya Bello's journey to becoming the Executive Governor of Kogi State in 2016 was truly historic. As the first Egbira person to hold the position, his ascension marked a significant shift in the state's politics, ending the Igala tribe's dominance since the state's creation in 1991.¹
Bello's eight-year tenure was marked by unprecedented development in the state. His achievements were a testament to his leadership and vision. After handing over power to Alhaji Ahmed Ododo in a peaceful election, Bello was invited by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to account for his stewardship. His return home was celebrated as a historic event on the last day of year 2024, marking a new chapter in his life and that of the entire Egbira people.
