YAHAYA BELLO WEDS FOURTH WIFE IN ABUJA
Yahaya Bello, the former Kogi state governor, has officially tied the knot with Hiqma, his fourth wife.
The private ceremony, which was held in Abuja on Saturday, was attended by close family and friends.
The marriage was confirmed by Hafiza Yahaya Bello, the former governor’s third wife, in a recent Instagram post.
She expressed gratitude to God for the new addition to their family and extended a warm welcome to the newest wife.
“Alhamdulillah, our family just got a little bigger and more loving! A warm welcome to our new family member, Mrs. Hiqma Yahaya Bello! May Allah bless our union and fill our home with love, peace, and Barakah. Amin,” she wrote.
Bello, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), served as Kogi state governor from 2016 to 2023. Throughout his tenure, he was widely regarded as Nigeria’s youngest sitting governor.
Before his latest marriage, he was already married to three wives: Amina Oyiza Bello, Rashida Yahaya Bello, and Hafiza Bello.
Educationally, Bello holds a BSc in Accounting and Business Administration from Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, as well as an MSc in Business Administration from the same institution.
The former governor has maintained a relatively private personal life, with this latest development marking another chapter in his family’s story.
