Special Adviser to the Benue State Governor on Special Duties, Mr. Abraham Kwaghngu, has assured that by 2019, Benue people will be begging Governor Samuel Ortom to contest again.

Kwaghngu told Reporters that Governor Ortom had done excellently well and therefore deserves the support of all Benue natives to continue the good work he had started in the food basket state.

He said, “2019 will certainly be about the people and I can assure you that when Governor Ortom completes his four years the people will be begging him to run in 2019 because what he has been doing for the state has never happened before given the level of transparency in governance, the openness in the running of government.

“He has restored peace and security in the state and went further to hand the state over to God. And you know that anyone with God is sure of victory because he only rules in the affairs of men. You know that with God all things are possible.

“If a man can disappoint you, God will never disappoint and abandon His own, that is the story of Governor Ortom who has handed everything about the state and himself to God.”

Meanwhile, Former Minister of Interior, Patrick Abba Moro, has lashed out at Governor Ortom, saying he does not deserve a second term.

Moro described Ortom’s utterance about second term as an affront to the sensibilities of the citizenry in Benue State when he was yet to do anything meaningful to justify the current mandate given to him by the people.
