Governor Ortom of Benue State
Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has said that the State Security Council will soon review the ban on motorcycles in two local government areas (LGAs) of the state.
According to a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Terver Akase, the governor said that his attention has been drawn to reports of the destruction of impounded motorcycles in Ukum and Katsina-Ala, and the governor “had given assurance that the security council will review the ongoing operation in the affected areas.
“He (Ortom) reaffirms the resolve of his administration to sustain the support given to security agencies for the protection of lives and property in all parts of the state,” the statement read in part.
It will be recalled that the State Security Council two weeks ago banned the use of motorcycles in Katsina-Ala and Ukum local government areas of the state due to insecurity in the two local governments.
