Governor Yahaya Bello.

Fanwo Kingsley, the DG Media and Publicity to the Governor denied the claims which was reportedly circulated by Safiya Musa.

"Our attention has been drawn to an unsolicited and derogatory publication doing the round and allegedly circulated by one to the effect that the Executive Governor of Kogi State has admitted committing double PVC registration.

"We crave the understanding of the public to the fact that the said Safiya Musa was not speaking on behalf of the Governor of Kogi State," the statement reads.

Continuing, the DG Media and Publicity to the Governor said: "Safiya Musa is not a spokesperson to the Governor, not an appointee of the New Direction Government, not a friend of the Governor and therefore lacks any locus standi to speak for or on behalf of the Governor.

"We therefore urge the public to disregard any message which  emanates from her on any issue which has to do with the government and office of the Kogi State Governor, Alhaji .

"Governor Yahaya Bello has not made any personal statement regarding the INEC claim of double registration and it is therefore obnoxious and criminal of anyone to purport and disseminate information on it," he said.
