Scanty Protests Rocks Kogi After Election

A group of youths took to the streets after the declaration of governor Yahaya Bello as the winner of the governorship election to protest what they described as election rigging.

Observers such as YIAGA Africa and a host of others called for the cancellation of the election which looked more like warfare than an election.

e protesters carried placards with inscriptions of various kinds condemning the electoral process as fraudulent.

Meanwhile, while pockets of protest rocked some areas, jubilation was going on in many parts of the state. Te once downtrodden and oppressed looking Kogites who claimed that they were owed several months of salaries by the governor disappeared as enthusiastic Kogites trooped out in large numbers to celebrate Bello's victory.
