No Tribe Can Make Itself Governor in Kogi State - Gov. Yahaya Bello Explains

In a significant move, Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State has taken action against perceived gross misconduct by deposing three traditional rulers. The affected monarchs are the Ohimege Igu of Kotonkarfe, HRH Abdulrazaq Isah Koto; the Olu Magongo, Sambola Ojoaha; and the Obobanyi of Emani, HRH Samuel Onimisi. These dethroned kings have been relocated to Niger states.
