Obasanjo Backs Yahaya Bello For 2023 Presidency

Eko hot blog recalls that Jonwo’s father, Obasanjo, had also paid a visit to the Kogi State governor.
Speaking during the visit, Olujonwo described Bello as a beacon of hope, urging the Kogi governor to step up his aspirations in order to create leadership space for the youths.
He said Nigerian youths have been neglected for too long despite the numerical strength and huge contributions in electioneering processes, have been denied the space to manifest their aspirations in political decisions making.
According to Jonwo, at 35-45 of age, current elder statesmen like General Muhammadu Buhari, Gen T. Y. Danjuma, Yakubu Gowon, and of course his father, Olusegun Obasanjo were at their best in nation-building and leadership.

“With a Bello presidency, there is no doubt that youths of competence and patriotic valor under the age of 27-30 can be ministers,” he said.
