For Governor Yahaya Bello, his re-election to Lugard House in Kogi state may already have become a done deal as he was photographed this morning enjoying a cup of tea along with aides in Lokoja.
In another photograph, Bello and his aides are seen flashing their four fingers, signifying four more years in the saddle as governor of the confluence state.
So far, the results announced by the Independent Electoral Commission put him ahead of his PDP rival, Engineer Musa Wada. There are 21 local councils in Kogi.
