‘We’re Coming After You’ — Yahaya Bello Issues Strong Warning to ‘Political Criminals’ in Kogi

Former Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has issued a stern warning to individuals he described as “political criminals” in the state, declaring that they should prepare to face the consequences of their actions.

Speaking in a video seen by DAILY POST while addressing supporters, Bello specifically referenced those he accused of engaging in political criminality, particularly in Kogi Central, insisting that such conduct would no longer be tolerated.

Although he did not mention any individual by name, the former governor said anyone who believed his remarks were directed at them should reflect on their actions.

According to Bello, political campaigns should not be used as a cover for defamation or personal attacks.

“The political criminals within us in Kogi State, get ready. The political criminals within Kogi Central, get ready. We are coming after you,” he said.

He added: “I didn’t mention anybody’s name. If you found yourself to be that political enemy, that political criminal, criminality is criminality. You cannot tell me that because it is campaign season, you use your mouth to malign me, and I will not come against you.”

Bello further stated that “the old time is gone,” describing the current period as “a new era.”

He also expressed confidence in the leadership of Kogi State Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying both leaders would steer the state and the country toward what he described as the “Promised Land.”
