The Outgoing Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, is optimistic that the state will surpass Lagos in terms of development.
He attributed this aspiration to his commitment to follow in the footsteps of Bola Tinubu.
Speaking on Tuesday during a visit to Tinubu’s wife, Oluremi, Governor Bello highlighted his determination to propel Kogi State into a new era of progress and development.
The visit also served as an opportunity for the governor-elect, Usman Ododo, to receive an endorsement and support for the ambitious plans set forth for the state’s future.

According to Bello, “Definitely Ododo is my worthy successor that the almighty has given the crown to be the governor as from January 27, 2024.
“In a simple term, what I am envisioning Kogi to be is just like what Tinubu planted in Lagos to what Lagos is today.
“In the next administration and nearest future, I envision Kogi to be trailing behind if not overtaking Lagos in terms of development; that is why we are emulating and following the footsteps of Tinubu.”
