Assassination Attempt Shocks Kogi: Governor Yahaya Bello Narrowly Escapes Ambush
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

It seems like Governor Yahaya Bello’s popularity might not be soaring high in Kogi State. Rumor has it that he owes a lot of salaries, which is never a good thing for a politician. But here comes the plot twist – an alleged assassination attempt on the governor.

According to the Kogi State Government, on this seemingly fateful Sunday, while Governor Bello was en route from Lokoja to an official engagement near Abuja, chaos erupted. The state Commissioner for Information, Kingsley Fanwo, revealed that this “attack” unfolded around 4 p.m. on the ominous date of October 22, 2023.

The assailants, oddly decked out in military attire, staged a military-style ambush on the governor’s convoy. They started firing wildly at his vehicle and the others in the convoy. Fortunately, the governor’s security detail sprang into action to thwart this unexpected assault.

Now, here’s where it gets even stranger. These attackers didn’t stop at one attempt; they had three different goes at it. The last showdown took place around Kwali in the Federal Capital Territory, just 20 minutes after the initial encounter.

The whole ordeal has been meticulously recorded at various security offices, both locally and nationally, to get to the bottom of this peculiar incident.

And now, the conspiracy theories emerge. Some folks are pointing fingers at politics, claiming the opposition party might be cooking up a sinister plan to eliminate Governor Bello. Why? Well, the Kogi State gubernatorial elections are merely a month away, and it seems like this election could be one for the history books, with fire and brimstone on the menu.

So, it’s a mix of politics, controversy, and a dash of the unexpected in the world of Governor Yahaya Bello. One thing’s for sure, the drama in Kogi State doesn’t seem to be winding down anytime soon.
