The Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello has dismissed reports that he donated N70m at last week's book launch of the wife of the President, Mrs Aisha Buhari.
In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Kingsley Fanwo, on Sunday, Gov Bello accused the opposition of turning politics to a comical adventure.
“The book launch was organised by the nation’s first lady to garner support for the families of the abducted Chibok girls which was attended by Governor Bello to lend support to the traumatised families of the girls. As a political leader and a parent, Governor Bello is touched by the plight of the girls and their families, hence the will to identify with the project.
“The book launch was televised to the whole world and no one announced what anyone donated. Governor Bello did not donate N70m as insinuated by the people who are turning opposition politics to a comical adventure,” he said.
