Road cutting strategy to protect Kogi from terrorists– Yahaya Bello ... (Royal News)

The Kogi State Government has said that the excavation of some roads in Kogi Central is a deliberate security measure to cut off traffic on those roads with ...

We assure the people of Kogi Central and Kogi State in general to come out enmasse to cast their votes as adequate security arrangements are in place to protect them before, during and after the polls. The protagonists of such fiction are elements who want to create panic in the state because of desperation to provoke chaos to cover up for their political feebleness. The security agencies ensured no life was lost as a result of the explosion, but the State Government convened an emergency Security Council Meeting to address the security challenges in the area with a view to devising strategies of averting possible future occurrence, especially as we witnessed similar explosion on December 29, 2022 at Okene. INEC and security agents have not complained about accessing every part of Okehi Local Government Area in particular and Kogi Central in general. One of the measures arrived at was to restrict the number of routes to the flashpoints to enable security agents properly mount effective surveillance on the other access roads for the safety of the people, especially as they go to the polls on Saturday February 25,2023. Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan should recognise the fact that the administration of Alhaji Yahaya Bello will never slaughter security on the slab of politics and will ruthlessly deal with criminal elements and their sponsors whose hearts are not immersed in the culture of peace of the Ebira Nation. As a Government, our responsibility is to protect the Kogi people and sometimes, we have to take drastic and even temporarily discomforting steps to achieve that. As an indigene of Okehi Local Government Area, she has not considered it expedient till now to sympathize with her people over the explosion that affected Okehi Local Government Area Secretariat Complex. With the current measures in Okehi Local Government, we are confident that the cowards who attacked the symbol of unity of the Okehi people will not escape from justice. In a statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Communications in the State, Kingsley Fanwo, the State Government drew the attention of the public to an explosion that rocked the Okehi Local Government Secretariat Complex a few days ago, as well as the Okene blast of December 29, 2022, during President Muhammadu Buhari’s visit to the State. The cry of one Mrs Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan over the measure to ensure security is therefore not a surprise. We thank the State Ministry of Works and Urban Development for their proactive efforts on the road,” he stated.

'Security measure' | 'Voters trapped' — Kogi government, Akpoti ... (TheCable)

Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, the PDP senatorial candidate for Kogi central, has accused the Kogi government of trying to disenfranchise voters.

“It would be recalled that a couple of days ago, the secretariat complex of Okehi Local Government suffered from the effect of an explosive device. As a matter of fact, I met the Adavi local government chairman running away the moment we came here. And right now, I am in front of another road which was just excavated, thereby cutting me out of travelling out of my hometown,” she said. “We woke up this morning to the news that Yahaya Bello has instructed the excavation of all access roads to my hometown. What this also means is if Yahaya Bello and his APC goons decide to attack me and the good people of Kogi central in Ihima community, it will be impossible for the DPO to get across to this place. “What this means is INEC would not be able to [access] certain communities, especially my hometown.
