Many Nigerians have expressed mixed opinion on the video which captured the moment Ododo knelt to present his certificate of return to Bello.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had previously awarded Usman Ododo the certificate of return in a ceremony held in Lokoja, the state capital.

Subsequently, Ododo presented the certificate to Governor Bello, eliciting reactions from the audience.

Both Ododo and Bello belong to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), with the governor-elect having served as the former Auditor-General of Local Government in the North-Central state.

Omokri took to social media to share his own opinion on the viral video.

He wrote: Why is it such a big deal that a Governor kneels to his godfather? Why are people getting all worked up? How many of you get worked up when Nigerians honoured by the British Crown kneel to King Charles III and his son, Prince William?

In terms of gratitude, what Yahaya Bello, who I don’t particularly like, has done for Ododo is more than what the British government did for those Nigerians honoured by the British Crown. I see nothing wrong with it. It is just appreciation done to your benefactor the way any well brought up Omoluabi would do.

I have done it once in politics when I begged my boss to give a political appointment to my friend after he appointed me and left my friend empty-handed, and while it was not easy, I understand the necessity.

After Obasanjo almost single handedly delivered Yar’adua as President, Yar’adua felt he was even too small to kneel to Obasanjo. He brought his own mother and his wife, and they knelt to Obasanjo publicly. No big deal in Ododo kneeling to Bello. It is a trait of a well brought up person. You give honour to whom it is due. If it is in Yoruba land, he will even prostrate flat. If you are walking by and a benevolent breaks a palm kernel that you could not break by yourself, should you not be grateful?
