Alhaji Yahaya Bello, the former Governor of Kogi State, has expressed strong displeasure over a recent report published by the online media outlet, Daily Excessive. The report in question allegedly sought to create discord between him and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Describing the publication as false and defamatory, Bello warned that he would take legal action against those responsible for the story, accusing them of intentionally spreading misinformation.
The former governor noted that such baseless reports not only harm his reputation but also aim to disrupt the harmonious relationship he shares with President Tinubu. He called on media platforms to uphold ethical standards and avoid promoting unverified information. Bello reaffirmed his commitment to supporting President Tinubu’s administration, emphasizing that unity and responsible journalism are crucial for the nation’s progress.
His legal team is reportedly preparing a lawsuit to address the matter, signaling a firm stance against what he described as a deliberate attempt to mislead the public. This move serves as a reminder of the importance of accountability and accuracy in the media space.
