Don’t Give Up Your Fight For Democracy, Yahaya Bello


Former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello and Femi Gbajabiamila, the Chief of Staff to President Bola Tinubu, have told a member of the House of Representatives Leke Abejide not to give up on his fight for democracy and the stability of his party – the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

They made the call in their separate goodwill messages at the dinner in honour of the legislator’s wife Esther Abejide on her 50th birthday celebration in Abuja over the weekend.

Bello described Abejide, who represents the Yagba East, Yagba West, and Mopa Moro Federal Constituency, Kogi State, as a committed democrat who pursues his political dreams to the end.

He said: “Leke Abejide sought to be a member of the House of Representatives on the platform of the APC then, and there are some mathematical miscalculations. But that never stopped him.

He came a second time, and he is performing and touching lives across the board. “Leke Abejide is acting as if he was the governor. At a point, I was like; do you want to overthrow me? “Leke Abigide sought to be the governor of Kogi State. He contested keenly with my amiable and wonderful successor.”
