Gov Ortom, blaming Suswam is not the way to go

Published by

BENUE people including myself rejected former Governor Gabriel Suswam in the last general elections. The people voted massively for Governor Ortom because they wanted to deviate from the path of Suswam to one who said he could lead them in another direction.

Having inherited a long trail of problems from his predecessor, it was understandable that Governor Ortom would grumble once or twice but little did we expect that it will take the centre stage of his administration and almost obscure it.

It is surprising that almost two years into Governor Ortom’s administration, blaming Suswam is now a major strategy of governance in Benue State.

Inasmuch as we appreciate the quest of this government in recovering the monies allegedly looted by the past administration of Gabriel Suswam, we also demand responses to current issues regarding the management of the state’s finances. After all, a bird in hand is worth more than two in the bush”.
