Kogi State Governor, Alhaji
Yahaya Bello was prevented from boarding a Turkish airline flight for a planned
trip to Saudi Arabia for lesser hajj.
According to Kogi reports, when
Bello went to the office of the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo to get
clearance for his trip to Saudi Arabia, his request was turned down by the Vice
President who advised him to go back to his state and settle workers unpaid
salaries. But he turned deaf ears to the vice president’s advice, and headed to
the airport where he was prevented from traveling.
A source who witnessed the
incident said, “The security men were shown relevant traveling documents, by
the governor, but the officers said they have no choice in the documents and
that they were only acting on instruction from above that they should not allow
him to travel.”
The Governor's travel
documents were reportedly seized by the security operatives.
