2023: I will end banditry, terrorism in one year if I’m elected as president – Yahaya Bello

Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has revealed that he will put an end to the activities of bandits, Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorists in one year if elected as president.

Bello said this on Friday in Abuja at the second annual GYB Seminar for Nigeria’s Political and Crime Editors and Correspondents.

“The whole world will bow for Nigeria after 365 days as president as security issues will be fixed,” Bello boasted.

The All Progressives Congress presidential (APC) aspirant promised to ensure that governors took responsibility for security in their states, stressing that he would hold them responsible for breaches if elected as Nigeria’s president in 2023.

“If I become the President, I will ensure that every chief executive of the various federating units sits up and do their jobs. I will not tolerate any lackadaisical attitude or passing of the buck to the centre. I will ensure that various federating units are strengthened.

“As a president, I will supervise and ensure that all security agencies carry out their duties as expected. I will punish those not doing well,” Mr Bello said.

The governor added that “Majority of some of these crimes are politically motivated, especially the recent ones we are witnessing. However, the issue of security can never be brought out to the public so you will not expose your country to danger.”
