Security operatives allegedly taking orders from the Presidency last week blocked Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello from boarding a Turkish airline flight for a planned trip to Saudi Arabia for lesser hajj.
According to Kogi reports, it was gathered that when Bello went to the office of the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo to get clearance for his trip to Saudi Arabia, his request was turned down by the Vice President who advised him to go back to his state and settle workers unpaid salaries. But he turned deaf ears to the vice president’s advice, and headed to the airport where he was prevented from traveling.
A source who witnessed the incident said, “The security men were shown relevant traveling documents, by the governor, but the officers said they have no choice in the documents and that they were only acting on instruction from above that they should not allow him to travel.”
The Governor's travel documents were reportedly seized by the security operatives.
Kogi Reports
Very good step in the right direction. If himself would attempt to disobey the V.P, tomorrow he would expect his commissioners to obey him. Cann't he observe Hajj here?, must he travel when workers salary are not paid for months. V.P thank you, keep it up
