2023: I’ve Made 2,000 Millionaires In Kogi – Governor Yahaya Bello Boasts

Kogi Governor Yahaya Bello has boasted that he has made 2,000 persons millionaires in his state.

According to TheNation, Bello spoke in Abuja at the opening ceremony of the “Second Governor Yahaya Bello (GYB) Seminar for Political and Crime Correspondents”.

Bello also expressed the wish to run for office as President with a female Vice Presidential candidate, if he gets his party’s ticket for the 2023 elections and its approval to choose his running mate.

The Governor was responding to a question about his economic plans for the country including his recent pledge to make 20 million Nigerians millionaires by 2030 if he succeeds President Muhammadu Buhari.

“We have made nothing less than 2,000 millionaires in Kogi,” Bello said.

On his choice of VP, he added: “If given the opportunity, if my political party will give me the opportunity and free hand to choose who will run with me come 2023, surely I will not leave the constituency of my mother. I would love to have the first female VP in 2023.”

Last Saturday, Bello formally declared to run for President in 2023, with a promise to build on Buhari’s legacy by adopting the Igbo apprenticeship system to create millionaires.

Commenting on national issues, Bello said he would never condemn President Muhammadu Buhari for the security challenges in his State.
