This news Platform understands that the printing and circulation of the posters were sponsored by a group known as Nigeria Youth Awareness Group (YAB).
Recall that Aji Bularafa, Political Adviser to the APC chairman, Mai Mala Buni, had said it is too early for Bello to start campaigning for the Presidency, even though it is his right as a Nigerian.
Bularafa also suspected that the governor may not be aware of the posters, hinting it may be the handiwork of some people after his money.
He advised Bello to concentrate on delivering the dividends of democracy to Kogi people rather than be distracted.
“Gov. Yayaha Bello has every right as a Nigerian to contest for the president of the country but I think it is too early.
“He has more than two years as a governor to serve his people because his election was in November, 2019.
“It is also possible that the Governor may not be the one nursing the ambition but probably some people who are after his money.
“These things are possible in politics. You will see may of such posters as 2023 comes closer,” Bularafa said
