Yahaya Bello, Solution To Nation’s Insecurity- Vigilante Group.

The Vigilante Group of Nigeria (VGN) says that Gov. Yahaya Bello of Kogi remains the solution to Nigeria’s insecurity, as they join the call urging Bello to run for President in 2023.
The VGN made the call on Saturday when a representation of its membership from across the 36 states paid a visit to Bello at the Kogi Government Lodge in Abuja.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the VGN also presented an award to Bello for his outstanding performance in tackling insecurity and crimes in Kogi.
Dr Usman Jahun, Commander General of the VGN said the group was also calling on Bello to become President so that he can secure Nigeria same way he has secured Kogi which is the safest State in Nigeria.
Jahun also commended Bello for how well he has position the VGN, Kogi Chapter and has made them an integral part of the State’s security architecture.
“The Vigilante Group of Nigeria is a fully registered entity with all structures across the 36 states of the country where we are very present.
“We have seen all that You, Governor Yahaya Bello has done in securing Kogi State and that is why we have come to appreciate all your efforts as we see you as a hope to solving the insecurity in Nigeria.
“We want you to become President so that you can apply the same security approach you have used in Kogi that has made it the safest state in Nigeria to make Nigeria safe again,” Jahun said.
Jahun said that the group is also throwing its weight around Bello because he knows that as one who places priority on security, he would reposition the VGN for an effective service delivery.
He said that the VGN had five million members across the 36 states of the Federation, with a lot of them who are retired from all security agencies.
“We have seen what you have done with the Kogi State Vigilate Group, by paying them good salaries, training them, we want you to become President so that you can also reposition this Group across the country.
“We have five million members who are military officers, police officers, the DSS, Civil Defense Officers amongst others, when we are fully utilized, and equipped we are ready to sacrifice our lives to make sure there is peace in the country.
“The eight Assembly passed our bill, now it is before the ninth Assembly and President Muhammadu Buhari  has also tried for the Organisation.
“We are sure that when you become President, you will sign it into law for fill implementation,” Jahun said.
Jahun said that the Group had gone round the country drumming support for Bello not because it has gotten any monetary support from the governor but just because of his capabilities.
The governor appreciated the Group for recognizing his efforts and the modest achievements of the State in security and across all sector.
Bello assured the group that he will not disappoint them and other Nigerians who are calling on him to run for the 2023 Presidency.
He also urged the Group and other Nigerians to appreciate all the President Buhari had done in securing Nigeria, adding that security remained the  responsibility of every Nigerian including the VGN.
“You took it upon yourself to move round this country without a dime from me, without motivating you, without asking you to do that, without even having a prior discussion to do that.
“But because you have seen millions of Nigerians urging me to run for President of this country. you joined the multitude of Nigerians to call on me to run for Presidency in 2023.
“By the special grace of God Almighty, I will not disappoint you. It is often said and I believe that the voice of the people is the voice of God.
Bello urged the Group to collaborate with other security agencies and their state governments, same way it is being done in Kogi State.
He also warned them against listening to disgruntled politicians and those who do not have the love of Nigeria at heart.
“Please continue to organise yourselves and please cooperate with all the law enforcement agencies as usual, just like the VGN in Kogi State.
“The way they are cooperating with us there, please cooperate with every state chapter and provide adequate, effective intelligence for them to act.
“Relate with your various governors, relate with your various leaders across board, irrespective of his political affiliation, religion or irrespective of whatever he believes in, relate with them very well and let us have a peaceful Nigeria.
“And please, listen less to some politicians who are disgruntled and at an appropriate time, I want to assure you that we shall expose them so that we will never have them in positions of authorities again,” Bello said.

Governor Yahaya Bello And Security: The President We Want – GYB2PYB Ebonyi State.

Security of lives and property are the primary duty of every leader who truly have the interest of his people at heart.
In the past, Kogi State was reputed one of the criminal hideouts in Nigeria as a result of insecurity of great magnitude!
Obviously, people are now asking to know the secret of mass acceptance of Governor Yahaya Bello, the youngest and most gender-friendly Governor in Nigeria!
The is simple. Governor Yahaya Bello gives premium attention to SECURITY.
According to the South African White Paper on defence 1996, “Security is an all-encompassing condition in which individual citizen lives in freedom, peace and safety, participate fully in the process of governance, enjoy the protection and fundamental Rights, have access to resources and basic necessities of life; and inhabit an environment which is not detrimental to their health and well-being.”
Today, Governor Yahaya Bello as the most active youthful and gender-friendly Governor in Nigeria, has done well in ensuring that security of lives and property receive the attention it deserves!
Immediately His Excellency assumed office, the issues of insecurity and youth unemployment became a thing of the past; as he swung into action using the best crime control measures.
No wonder, Salem University that ranks number one among universities that produce capable criminologists and criminal justice experts is located in Kogi State!

Undoubtedly, Governor Yahaya Bello understands the importance of crime control using Social Development and not just applying reactive measures or brigadier approach that only produce little or no results!
At the moment, Nigeria in its entirety are in search of a detribalized and youthful leader, who understands the intricacies surrounding 21st century leadership, where the youth are given equal developmental opportunities, to participate actively in governance and socio-economic development.
As we intensify efforts in search of a leader who will fix Nigeria, may we thank God that Governor Yahaya Bello, the captain of the Confluence State is most ready and willing to answer the clarion call of Nigerian youth to lead us to our long awaited destination….where SECURITY, equal developmental opportunities, massive youth employment and national integration are guaranteed!
The Youth believe that if Governor Yahaya Bello becomes the President, come 2023, he will replicate his good governance model, especially in areas of SECURITY of lives and property, gender inclusion, national integration, youth development and employment among other things…
In Kogi state today, you’ll not hear of: BANDITS, Kidnapping, Herdsmen attacks, armed robbery and other social vices that truncate sustainable peace and development!!!!
Think a better Nigeria! Think Yahaya Bello!! Think peace and security!!!
