Yahaya Bello, Kogi State governor, has officially declared his intention to run for president under the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2023.
Bello made his intention public on Saturday in Abuja, ending speculations about his ambitions.
The occasion was witnessed by some eminent Nigerians like Senator Jonathan Zwingina, Femi Fani-Kayode, among others.
In his statement, Zwingina said that the “governor uprooted insecurity from Kogi, the state would have been a breeding ground for kidnapping and banditry, but for his leadership skills.”
