Former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, on Thursday, received the parents of his successor, Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo, at his residence in Okene.

The visit of the Governor’s parents, Alhaji Ahmed Sani and Hajia Habibat Ahmed Sani, further demonstrated the enduring bond between the two families and their continued commitment to the progress of Kogi State.

In his remarks while hosting the couple, former governor Bello expressed his gratitude for their steadfast prayers and unwavering support.

He commended their immense contribution to the upbringing and moral foundation of their children, which he noted had shaped Governor Ododo into a disciplined and compassionate leader.

Bello extolled Mr. and Mrs. Ahmed Sani for their exemplary parenting, emphasizing that their teachings and values were evident in the character and leadership of their son.

He noted that identifying Ododo as his successor was not by chance but a deliberate decision, adding that he had recognized him as a compassionate leader who prioritizes the well-being of the people.

He said he was confident Ododo would build on the achievements of his administration for the overall benefit of the state.
“Your son is a worthy successor. His compassion for the plight of our people and his commitment to the state’s development have stood out. I have no doubt that his tenure will strengthen the foundation we’ve built and propel Kogi State to greater heights,” the former governor said.

In response, Alhaji Ahmed Sani expressed profound gratitude to the former governor for the trust and confidence he placed in Governor Ododo, describing it as a rare and commendable gesture.

Alhaji Sani also acknowledged the legal and political battles Yahaya Bello had faced, referring to them as divine tests that all great leaders must endure.

He expressed the confidence that these challenges were stepping stones to greater opportunities and elevation in Bello’s political career.

The elated parents of Governor Ododo offered prayers for Yahaya Bello, asking for continued divine protection, guidance, and blessings in his future endeavours.

They emphasised their belief that Bello had yet to fulfill the full extent of his God-ordained destiny.

Revelatory new DNA analysis has suggested that people with Nordic heritage could be found in Britain centuries before the Vikings first arrived.

According to this new analysis, the Nordic presence in the UK even pre-dates the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons on these shores, with the first Scandinavian settlers in the UK thought to have fought as gladiators.

The findings stem from the discovery of remains in York, which upon further research was found to have lived at some stage between the second and fourth centuries AD.

An individual was found buried in a cemetery on Driffield Terrace in York and it is thought they were either a ‘gladiator or soldier’.

The Vikings first arrived in Britain in 793 AD, while the Anglo-Saxons’ first noted presence was in 449 AD, therefore suggesting that Nordic genes were the earliest to appear in Britain.

Researchers from the Frances Crick Institute in London used high-tech DNA analysis to help identify three separate waves of migration in Europe roughly two millennia ago.

The first wave saw people migrate from parts of Northern Germany and Scandinavia southwards into central Europe over the first 500 years AD.

Britain was not the only area with a significant Scandinavian DNA found during this period though, with Germany, Italy, Poland and Slovakia all offering up similar results.

It is this Nordic influence which saw the evolution of the modern English and German languages.

Inverse migration also occurred according to the new research, with some Europeans moving northwards into Scandinavia. This is known due to the analysis of teeth fragments found in Sweden.

During what remains the most familiar wave of migration, the Viking hordes settled across Europe, with many battles breaking out particularly in England.

This led to famous battles such as the Battle of Stamford Bridge and the Lindisfarne Priory raids.

In order to collate the data, researchers used a process called Twigstats, which can recreate ancestry by looking at how many genetic mutations are shared between individuals.

‘It allows us to see what we couldn’t before, in this case migrations all across Europe originating in the north of Europe in the Iron Age, and then back into Scandinavia before the Viking Age,’ said Leo Speidel, lead author of the study, who now works at Riken, a scientific institute in Japan.

‘Our new method can be applied to other populations across the world and hopefully reveal more missing pieces of the puzzle.’

Peter Heather, a professor of medieval history at King’s College London, a co-author of the study, said: ‘Historical sources indicate that migration played some role in the massive restructuring of the human landscape of western Eurasia in the second half of the first millennium AD which first created the outlines of a politically and culturally recognisable Europe.

‘But the nature, scale and even the trajectories of the movements have always been hotly disputed. Twigstats opens up the exciting possibility of finally resolving these crucial questions.’
