Some civil servants in Kogi state
have protested against the administration of Yahaya Bello, governor of the
state.
In an undated video which
surfaced on Tuesday, the protesters, who were armed with various placards and
branches of trees, can be heard chanting solidarity songs in Yoruba, indicating
that they are from Kogi west.
“This suffering is too much, we
cannot cope,” one of the songs can be heard in the video.
Bello has been accused of owing
civil servants between 8 to 38 months salary arrears. The governor, however,
argued that he only owed the state workers four months salaries.
In May, the governor said unpaid
salaries of workers is most pressing issue for him.
Below is a video of the protest.
