Supplementary poll: BYF reveals plots by Bello, Northern Govs to invade Benue with armed thugs
The youth also called on President Muhammadu Buhari to caution the governor against an alleged plot to invade Benue with legion of armed thugs.
The statement added, “It has become necessary to draw the attention of President Muhammadu Buhari to the plan hatched by Kogi State Governor, Yahya Bello to invade Benue with a legion of armed thugs during Saturday’s supplementary Governorship and State Assembly elections. “Bello’s mission to Benue is to sponsor violence at polling units in areas where the supplementary election is to hold so that voters will flee and allow APC thugs to thumb-print for their candidate, Emmanuel Jime.
“Governor Bello and the APC thugs from Kogi State have concluded plans to enter Benue through the Makurdi-Naka road, meet with Senaror Akume and Jime before moving to the various local government areas where the polls are to hold.
