The Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello has described the reports which alleged that he was restrained from travelling abroad as calumnous, stating that he never intended to travel, neither was he stopped by anybody.

The many version story which was scripted by one Mr. Amuda Dan Suleiman was widely shared on Tuesday on the social media, alleging that Bello was restrained from travelling for pilgrimage on the account that he has not paid workers.

The Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Kingsley Fanwo in a statement on Wednesday, debunked the report, while describing it as sponsored renegades of the opposition.

"The architects came up with so many versions of the story. To some dreamers, Buhari stopped the Governor. To some mischief-brewers, security agencies barred the Governor from travelling. And to the last set of abridged thinkers, Sen. Dino Melaye physically went to the airport to stop the Governor.

"To set the record straight, nobody stopped the Governor from travelling abroad. Nobody would have anyway, because he reserves such right to travel even as salary payments have been ongoing. Only a few MDAs who have not complied with the wagebill integrity are yet to be paid and they are few," he said.

Fanwo added that the mission of the purportedly sponsored report was to smear the personality of the Governor and cause a distraction in a time where civil servants have refused to embark on strike.

"Governor Yahaya Bello understands that both delivery and distraction are competing for his attention. Yielding to distraction will surely stifle delivery," he said.

On the delay in payment of salaries, he stated that all hands are on deck to ensure that genuine workers are paid promptly, urging workers to shun reports that there would be retrenchment.

Lies everywhere you go...

in every rumour there is an iota of truth innit, why travel to hajj deserting your people in pain and hunger, the height of insensitivity frm the gov'r. Thou a lot been hating on the young lad bt will expect much frm him evn if kogi is a complex state replicatin the major tribes in nig wit Okun, ebira and igala. Those tribe ruling kogi since creatn has plummet the state into rut n bankrupt. So the govr neds time.

We heard it in kogi even b4 that online media carried it Mr Gov....so save us this explanation. This gov moved all workers in Kogi to Zenith and Access bank...and we have it on gud authority that he did that cos they were the two banks which agreed to fix the 20b he got as bailout...we heard he even collected the profit upfront. All other banks have even gone on strike in Kogi since yesterday...most civil servants are on loan facilities with this other banks yet he moved them to the bank of his choice without due process....Bello is killing Kogi...

this governor is a clown....iidiieet

This is medicine after death after the death of the monkey come crying mama!!! Just go and settle you state workers their salaries that's all mr gominor rather than telling us this taste bye moonlight story!!!!

Mr. Gomina, My own questions are: After d the drama, did u eventually travel?
if ur answer is No; can u please tell me why u didnt?





I guess any being with a rutabaga brain will answer this after reading the first report cuz we all know u didnt leave the airport talkless been airborne

Season of Denials

Oga you lie. You NOSE the truth.

Its only few dullards who sentiments dont allow to reason with their brain for once that will believe such story in the first instance,Even loud mouthed Ekiti peoples' headman have never been barred from travelling for once.How on earth can such order be given i just dont know.

Time will tell

Okay. We have heard. Go and pay Kogi workers. Haba! They voted you in for a change naw!

and to think that i believed in this guy n he is here letting me down.
he has to be reminded how he got to that post, which is only possible with God

Instead of paying his state's workers six months outstanding salaries with the 20 billion naira bailout fund given to him by the FG, he is busy saying nobody stopped him from travelling...Now I understand why the Igalas never wanted relinguishing power to his ethnic group. What a shame!

APC propagandizing against APC
APC lying against APC.
We are not surprised, Lie Mohammed will soon come out with another version
