Kogi: Attah Igala, Ahmadu Ali drum support for Bello

The Attah Igala, Idakwo Michael Ameh Oboni II, and the former national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Ahmadu Ali, have called on people of Kogi State to eschew ethnic sentiments and support the Governor Yahaya Bello-led government.

The duo made the call in their separate remarks on the occasion of the third anniversary of the Attah Igala, which was held at the weekend in Idah, Kogi State.

The paramount ruler, who commended Governor Bello for his peaceful and detribalised disposition, said that all the ethnic groups in the state were from the same root.

 

“The presence of the executive governor of my state, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, here in our midst goes a long way to show his love, commitment and understanding of the various segments that make up the state. Within a short time, he has identified and tackled the endemic problems bedeviling the state with the rapidity of a general’s order,” he said. 

On his part, Senator Ali urged the Igala people to support the administration of Yahaya Bello in order to bring even development to all parts of the state.

“Don’t go to war with Ebiras my children, power belongs to God and he chooses whom to give it. It can be your turn tomorrow,” he said.
