Samuel Ortom, governor of Benue state, says he now knows why President Donald Trump said there are “shithole countries” in Africa.
Washington Post had attributed the controversial comment to Trump but the US leader denied using those words.
While reacting to the impeachment notice which eight lawmakers of the All Progressives Congress (APC) served on him, Ortom said such a thing would only happen in a “shithole country”.
The governor said he was being targetted for moving to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
He accused the inspector-general of police and director-general of police of perpetuating evil, appealing to President Muhammadu Buhari to call them to order.
Ortom also alleged that George Akume, a serving senator in the state, was behind the political crisis in Benue.
“Now I know why Trump called Nigeria a shithole country. It’s only in a shithole country that eight house of assembly members can suspend 22 lawmakers,” he said.
