Your leadership style is accidental, totalitarian- APC Chairman slams Governor Bello

The political crisis rocking the All Progressives Congress, APC in Kogi State appears to be heightening as the State Party Chairman, Alhaji Haddy Amoto has described Governor Yahaya Bello’s style of leadership as accidental and totalitarian.

Our Kogi State Correspondent reports that Alhaji Haddy Amoto accused Governor Bello of bringing untold hardship and pains on the people of Kogi State through his “many anti-people policies.”

Alhaji Amoto in a press statement made available to Fresh Angle International, claimed that Yahaya Bello was not part of the struggle of building and nurturing APC in Kogi State, “but circumstance gave him the opportunity to cash in on the labour of others.”

The APC Chairman added, “this is why he is mismanaging the opportunity and turning governance to charade and kindergarten affairs in Kogi State, thereby making people to lose confidence in our party. When we campaigned round the 21 local governments areas of the state as a united party, we promised people change and better life, we promised a transparent government where all Kogites will have a sense of belonging, we promised the people that our government will pay salary and emoluments of civil servants as at when due."

He stressed, "we promised the security of lives and property of citizens of the state, we promised to respect the fundamental human rights of the people of the state, but unfortunately, the government of Yahaya Bello does not represent the beautiful agenda of the APC in Kogi State".

The APC Chairman also condemned the whistle blowing policy introduced by Governor Yahaya Bello. "When the indefatigable leader of our party, His Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari introduced the whistle blowing policy, it was geared towards assisting the government to get valuable information on the recovery of looted funds and assets belonging to the government," the statement noted.

The statement continued, "It is disheartening to hear that the Yahaya Bello led government is making mockery of the lofty idea in Kogi State by rewarding those giving information about the critics of his government under the disguise of whistle blower with the sum of five hundred thousand naira (N500,000.00) of tax payers’ money. This is certainly far from what whistle blowing concept is all about. The government of the day in Kogi State is oppressing and intimidating people who worked tirelessly for the victory of APC, which he is enjoying today."
