In what seems to be a continuation of Governor Yahaya Bello’s discontent with the performances of some of his cabinet members and local government chairman in the November 11 governorship election, the Kogi State Government has ordered immediate freezing of all state and local government bank accounts.
The Commissioner for Finance, Asiwaju Asiru Idris disclosed this in a statement on Thursday, declaring that no form of payment should be made to anyone from the government account henceforth.
According to the statement, all “standing orders and investment instructions are hereby cancelled forthwith”.
