Tinubu’s re‑election is a “personal project” for Kogi,

The phrase “Tinubu’s re‑election is a ‘personal project’ for Kogi” refers to commentary that former Lagos governor Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s 2023 presidential re‑election campaign heavily relied on the political support of Kogi State’s governor, Yahaya Kuta Bello, and his local networks. Observers described the effort as a “personal project” because Kogi’s leaders and political machines were mobilized specifically to secure votes for Tinubu, highlighting the outsized influence of a single state’s patronage in the national election.
