Ex-Deputy Gov Reveals Yahaya Bello's Betrayal, Shifts Focus to Political Support

Edward Onoja, former deputy governor of Kogi State, disclosed that Yahaya Bello reneged on a promise to endorse him as his successor, instead backing Mohammed Ododo. Onoja recounted how Bello had assured him of becoming the next governor in 2023, only to choose Ododo, a friend, as his preferred candidate.

The betrayal of trust by Bello was highlighted by Onoja, who shared his disappointment in the turn of events. Despite the broken promise, Onoja has shifted his focus to supporting Governor Ahmed Usman and President Bola Tinubu, emphasizing the importance of moving forward despite political setbacks.
