Petra Akinti Onyegbule, the Senior Special Assistant to Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello shared these photos of the Governor driving himself to work praising his humility. To her, it is a pretty big deal? What do you think? See what she wrote after the cut..
"When Obama carries his bag, we oooh and aaaah over photos of him doing so. We say in our clime, an "ordinary councillor" doesn't. That elected officials in Nigeria hardly do anything themselves. But then, I saw my Governor drive himself and his chief of staff and thought "aha! The existing narrative is not true."
Our Governor certainly doesn't have the master mentality. He sees himself as a leader, into whose hands power has been entrusted to better the collective lives of Kogites.
Governor Yahaya Bello is a special breed. Some of us know this already. With time, y'all will see this is no packaging. And that he's the real deal! Erm, bad belle people won't be able to resist asking "what's the big deal?" grin emoticon You sure it isn't?"

PEPSI ADDICT
She is doing her job.....but she should know that the mantra of her party is CHANGE
Gov ibikunle amosun of Ogun state drives his mercedes benz G wagon by himself. He basically even moves around without a convoy, Jst a patrol vehicle following his G wagon. It's commendable but it's not a big deal
its only in Kogi things like that happen. why will he not fear abi the minister we lost on sunday also was not from same state. haba the guy like his life.

Na big deal ooo,how many have u seen doing such..ds linda sef
Mstchewwwwwwww
When we've already lost two public figure to Road accident, the guy probably feels safer behind the wheels
Mtchewwwww! Driving himself to work n plenty security walking beside his car is rubbish madam special assistant. Sure those BG's can die walking and d cameramen too can die while running to snap d almighty Kogi governor driving himself... dee
Kenyan president drives himself most times,. This is not a big deal
Rubbish, doesnt the British PM takes train to work? so whats special about him driving... Double your hustle
Dey r on their own
Why can't i stop thinking about pastor Suleiman's prophesy concerning Kogi state governor?
Is he driving himself because he's scared on an "accident"?
Sir, we are praying to avert whatever obstacles are sent your way.
While driving, don't forget to obey traffic lights and stop at a zebra crossing for pedestrians.
Some governors drive themselves because they have trust issues, they think someone is out to kill them and don't trust a driver not to be one of those people, enugu former governor chimaroke used to do same
How does it affect the price of fuel?
Linda giv us this stupid girls twitter handle let's go hard on her stupid idiot ass licker.biill gates drive himself ted turner of cnn drives himself. Even mark zuckerberg so wats d big deal
Me I no blame the guy o. In this era of accident related deaths. It's okay to place your safety and destiny in your own hands. Go on Gov..
What's this world turning to?..an SSA to a State Governor writting like this???...the #EndTime is surely here with us.my Lord Jesus Christ,pls do not forsake me at your rapture
YES Linda!it is a big deal.maybe in the UK or someplace else it is not but in Naija,it is.how any governors in this country have u seen driving himself?!me I neva see Sha...let's call a spade a spade abeg!
It is not a big deal jare!
I still don't understand why the governor is being accorded a 'special breed' status because he drives himself. Let him drive the car he bought with his own money, let him reduce his salary, let him turn around Kogi state for good then we can think of giving him a special status.
Linda wot do u think? Ofcos a big deal, how many guvnors hav u seen doin dat?
Idiots! What's the big deal? A certain Ngige and Rotimi Amaechi did same as governors, even Sam Egwu of Ebonyi state was always spotted boarding a motorcycle (Okada).
Mr SSA let me tell u why the governor is driving himself because he doesn't trust Kogi people. Let look at it this way in the last two month strong things have happened in kogi true or false. So don't politicize it because he will soon be unseat.
She shud pls shut up,she jt wants to familiarise
What a stupid butch
Stop sucking his dick and tell us another story
Personally I like driving so much so I don't see it as a big deal...if I had a gov't office, I'm pretty sure i'll ride myslf most of the time cos personally I hate back seats
Shallow Minds!!!
What is the big deal about it.Former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi drives himself and there is no noise about it.
a man just 40 years.why wouldnt he drive himslef to work.whats the distance,plz next jari.
It's only in Africa leaders are presume to be gods
Making a deal out of nothing...
Kini big deal?! And why are his Windows down by the way? So we can see he's driving himself Abi.?
Na mumu.Amaechi was known for this.you hardly see A matching being ferried around by a driver when he was governor.i pray for her to receive sense
We need fuel and light because he drivers himself we should do what? David Cameron takes the train should we lick his feet?
There is no big deal
big deal? abeg he should go and rest jare...if he likes he should trekk to the office, who e don hep?

Linda na you get your mouth o!
There is no big deal, instead a major Security risk.... There is a reason why DSS has specially appointed well trained drivers for very important and highly placed Principals. You don't see foreign leaders drive themselves not because they can not driver but for safety and protection they don't. So it is not in any way a big deal or a deal at all.
Don't be deceived, he had just sent his driver to go and apply for driver's license and see if truly he would pass to get one. Lesson learnt.

That's humility, and it's a key factor in development. It means a lot. Shows he's not working alone but with his team and everyone is being carried along. How many Nigerian leaders can do that ? #AnewDawnKogiState.
No big deal about it Joor...did we not see David Cameroon boarding a train to work three days ago..
well! it's suppose to be no big deal but then again it's a big deal in this part of the world because u will hardly find a governor that drives himself to work everyday.
Wen he pays salaries,then we can oooh and haaaa over ths picture,fr nw Wats d big deal?mtcheeew BDW we dnt xpect u to say Anythn diff
Na u ask question,na u answer urself
Na u ask question,na u answer urself
storyyyy, he is just being careful to avoid what happened to the Ocholi's and the COZA pastor has succeded in putting fear in him.
Prime Minister of Britain David Cameron goes to work in a train so whats the big deal if he drives himself to work?
I don't see any news story here pls.
Na real shallow mind u get for commending dis!!
After the manner in which James Ocholi died, why won't he drive himself???

Its not a big deal, But most Nigerian leader would not do that, thats it. If Obama carries his bag he will be praised n compared to Nigerian leaders meaning Nigerian leaders have pride.Buts haes only trying to say his different n humble, thats all.
l honestly think there is either an 'Ego' Problem or probably there's something between Linda and Comrade Petra which they are not telling us...U know Lady's Wahala!!!!!Because for me, l don't see any issue on Petra's Post, Its just to show how humble the Governor was, especially in the Africa Continent.
But Then,l also think its not safe, security wise: especially Going by the circumstances that led to AYB's emergence as Kogi Governor. Anyway, The Governor should Continue his work and make us Proud because l am highly optimistic that AYB will not in anyway disappoint Kogites.
May this SSA receive wisdom IJN. This post shows how naive she is. I hope she is not one of the beat brains from Kogi
what is special since as he is driving his security were tracking is it not more punishment for them, he could have as well allow them to drive so they can rest.
Na new tin
See the flamboyant car he is even driving !!
What is the big deal??!!! Senseless people.
Is it a crime if he drives himself? It part of life. Linda shebi you also drives yourself?
IF YOU ARE NOT FAYOSE,YOU CANT GET THE SAME VIBES BY TRYING TO BE REAL!FAYOSE DOESNT TRY TO BE,HE IS!GO TRY OKADA WITHOUT AN AIDE!!
A nation gets the type of leaders it deserves. What is the big deal about him driving himself?
No big deal mr Cameroon and other members of the parliament here in the uk even uses train and public transport sometimes
Der is no big deal in driving your self to work.
Who won't want to drive a brand new Range Rover Autobiography by himself... Thrills of being 40!#Normal
Petra Akinti Onyegbule, the Senior Special Assistant to Kogi State Governor should be sacked....it shows how naive and dumb the SSA is,No big deal in a president driving him or herself talkless of Kogi state Gov...mischew
He is driving a 30m naira car to work by himself,who wouldn't want to drive himself in such a luxury car? He should drive a 2007 camry to work by himself,then we will know he is down to earth.
Exactly he'll soon be removed
Igbinedion, Ibori, Amaechi and Fayose all drove themselves as governors. I once saw the late Prince Abubakar Audu driving in Lokoja in the early 90's as governor without convoy. Nothing new madam propaganda SSA
It is a big deal! For one, it is a security risk. The security detail should have refused the offer the Governor drive himself to work. I assume the Security detail are posted there by DSS. A formal complaint should be made to their department. It should not happen again. That Governor is their responsibility. Their lives are in DANGER too. They should put their foot down.
Lol. Supported.
Haba,, its not a big deal
NA fear dey catch am o. How come suddenly he started to drive himself? even you yourself no hear of wetin that driver do to oga hon. minister for state? Oga govina trust only himself and none else henceforth even you we ydey yarn kpakpa.
Gov Mimiko drives himself most times! It's no big deal abeg! Give us light, fuel, ha!
ok good.But lets see how long he will do this.
