A caveat emptor has been issued to prospective buyers of properties and assets belonging to Kogi State, which have been advertised for disposal by the administration of Yahaya Bello, governor of the state.
This was contained in a press statement issued by the chairman of the Kogi State chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Renaissance Group, David Ogu and made available to our reporter in Lokoja.
The statement noted that such subscribers to the commonwealth of Kogi State, have been warned to refrain from committing their resources into a fraudulent venture, which will not stand the test of time.
The statement which decried the decrepit and degenerate conditions of physical and social infrastructure in Kogi State, under Bello, interrogated the rationale for the advertisement of state-owned assets for disposal, by an administration that has contributed the least to the physical development of the state, in its 30-year history.
“In less than six years of the Bello dispensation, Kogi State has received far more resources from the federation account, than all the previous administrations put together.
“Yet, the Bello milieu has zero identifiable projects to show for the humongous sums that have continually accrued to the state treasury.
“On the contrary, Bello has raised the bar of electoral intolerance and violence in the state, as reflected by the gangsterism and bloodshed, witnessed during 2019 gubernatorial in Kogi State.
“Indeed, the retreat noted that the ruling All Progressives Congress, (APC), has instituted a regime of the barrel of the gun, unknown in the nation’s electoral history.
“Husband of Mrs Salome Abuh, the lady politician who was locked up in her house and incinerated by agents of the APC, after the November 2019 governorship election in the state, Elder Simeon Saidu Abuh, recounted the horrific murder of his wife and the wanton destruction of the family’s physical estate, in the unfortunate event.”
