According to Punch Newspaper, the former Speaker of the Kogi State House of Assembly, Prince Mathew Kolawole, said, “Frankly speaking, what is happening to former Governor Yahaya Bello today is very unfortunate. This man has sacrificed so much for APC, especially during the 2023 elections. For me, there is nothing wrong with anybody aspiring for any position. If he aspired to be the President of this country, then it is his desire that shouldn’t have been seen as a reason for his recent persecution in the hands of EFCC by some people who are scared of his rising political influence. It is a fact that immediately after he lost the Presidential primary election, he supported the candidate of APC, which is our leader, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”
Prince Mathew Kolawole added that the former Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello was the Chairman of various Youth organizations across the country, and he mobilized Nigerian Youths to vote for the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Kogi and delivered one hundred percent to the APC in the just concluded General Election. He also added that Yahaya Bello had done a lot for the party, and the problem the former Governor had today was a result of some people who were in the corridors of power who were ones orchestrating his persecution.
