2023: I was only “testing the microphone”, I’ll contest presidential ticket again – Yahaya Bello

Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has said his 2023 presidential ambition was “testing the microphone” as he would run for presidential ticket again in a subsequent election.

Bello disclosed this to the State House Correspondents shortly after meeting President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday.

The governor said he was at the Presidential Villa to see President Buhari on a thank-you visit for letting him participate in the highly contested All Progressive Congress, APC, presidential primary at the Eagles Square in Abuja.

According to Bello, his recent attempt for the ticket was to “test the mic,” adding that his next attempt would be “supersonic.”

He appealed to his supporters for continued assurance in his presidential bid saying “sometimes you win some and sometimes you lose.” while urging them to support the current flag bearer, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu in next year’s elections.
