I thank God for the election that has come to an end. It’s relatively peaceful. I can see clearly now that it is not the number of LGA that a Senatorial districts gets that determines its possibility of winning. Could anyone tells me the magic been used by Kogi East before year 2015 to win elections in Kogi State ? Congratulations to the newly elected Governor and a bigger congratulations to His Excellency Gov. Yahaya Adoza Bello.
