KOGI: Gov Bello failed because he was not prepared for governance — Erico vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
Whatever happened in Kogi before and now, I don’t see it as a challenge that is not surmountable. I am a man with great ideas. I started my private security organisation with nothing because I have no brother or sister that can help me at that point of need; but with commitment, doggedness, honesty and transparency, we were able to reach the stage we have attained today. I started the business in 2005 with just two staff members and today we have over 9,640 staff members all over the country.
I am not unaware that we are facing a lot of challenges in Kogi ranging from inability to pay salaries despite the increase in IGR and the huge sum of money accruing to the state from the Federation Account. As a captain of industry with over nine thousand staff members, if I am able to pay their salaries from the income we generate at a click of a button and their pensions, medical fees remitted, I don’t think the payment of workers salary will be a burden to me.
I will do something different first by accepting my people. I will weave all the three senatorial districts together and accept them as mine. I will build bridges between the three districts and make them to be brothers and sisters. If I am able to break this barrier that has kept people always from other ethnic groups, I will be able to make the difference where leaders, elders will be created, where potentials will be harnessed to decide the fate of the state.
