Alh.Yahaya Adoza Bello, a 46 years old youngest sitting democratically elected executive governor of Kogi State in North Central of Nigeria may have been viewed differently by Nigerians and non Nigerians.
He became an elected executive governor of a laden ethnic suspicious and obscured kogi state which was created in 1991and has been ruled by successive leaders from kogi East zone (The Igalla ethnic tribe) for 21 years. For purpose of refreshments:- Col.Danladi Zakari-2yrs, late prince Abubakar Audu-6yrs, Alh. Ibrahim Idris- 9yrs and capt.wada Idris-4yrs. It’s worthy to buttress the points that during the administration of gov.
