Onoja Criticizes Blocking Natasha from Voting in 2023 as Political Error by Ex-Governor Bello

Former deputy governor of Kogi State, Chief Edward David Onoja, criticized the decision to block PDP senatorial candidate Mrs. Natasha from voting in the 2023 general election, calling it a political error by ex-Governor Yahaya Bello's administration.

Onoja stated that the move backfired, boosting Natasha's popularity and sympathy among Kogi Central voters. He emphasized that the action was unstrategic and failed to build sympathy for Bello.

Onoja highlighted the importance of persuasion and trust in politics, contrasting it with Bello's alleged brutal approach. The incident involved deploying equipment to prevent Natasha from accessing a polling booth, which Onoja deemed as a misguided strategy that ultimately failed.
