He stated that some highly placed persons in government have made the nation a drain pipe, “siphoning resources meant for the development of critical infrastructures,” saying , he has refused to join the bandwagon to marketing the COVID-19.”

According to him “Since the HIV/AIDS broke out in 1985 with its devastating blow on humanity, the drug manufacturers of the west could not till today come up with a vaccine. The highest they could achieve was supplements.”

“Why, with less than a year of the outbreak of covid 19, the west and China have started jumping on themselves with their vaccines. One does not need a soothsayer to know that there is high level politics and marketing going across the globe” Bello said.

“I will not stop any one who want to take their vaccines, but my advice is for them to shine their eyes well and I wish them good luck” he added.

Last year , most states were under lockdown for months. Many died to hunger and starvation for a virus that ordinarily has 95% chances of recovery without using drugs depending on the health status of the patient. This is why I have maintained my stand not to lock down my state.”

“I however, warned those who are hiding under the covid 19 to milk the country to stop or God Almighty will visit them with anger.”
