The minister who led a delegation of Christian and Muslim leaders including FCT stakeholders to the Aso Villa to felicitate with the president on Christmas Day said Senator Adeyemi having served as a three term senator has the requisite experience, capabilities and acceptability to make the APC win the governorship election.
Bello who described Senator Smart Adeyemi as a very patriotic party faithful who has contributed so much to the growth of the party praised president Buhari for allowing power to shift to the South and urged the president to allow the same thing to happen in Kogi State.
He recalled that since the creation of Kogi State 32 years ago, the Eastern senatorial district of the state has produced three governors at various times which spanned for 24 years and the central axis of the state also produced a governor who will be completing his two term tenure of 8 years while the western senatorial district where Adeyemi hails from has never produced any governor.
