“Stop using thugs and criminals during elections” – Kogi gov. tells Politicians

Kogi state governor, Yahaya Bello, has asked politicians to stop the use of thugs and criminals during elections.

Bello said Nigeria will be safer and more secure when politicians stop the use of thugs and criminals.

The governor spoke while fielding questions from newsmen.

He explained that thugs who were used and dumped by politicians during elections metamorphosed into monsters and criminal elements that now terrorise Nigerians.

Bello also said that contrary to what is in the public space, he won the November 16, 2019 governorship poll without the use of boys or thugs.
