Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has lambasted the gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the state, Hyacinth Alia, over
Alia had during a political function in Gboko, described Governor Ortom as a fugitive and insane person, accusing his administration of corruption.
According to the statement, since Alia left his priestly calling and joined politics to aspire for the seat of Governor, the only message he has for the Benue people is denigration of the person and office of Governor of the state. “In a video posted on social media after yesterday’s event in Gboko, Alia could be heard describing Governor Ortom as a fugitive and insane person. For a man who is seeking to govern Benue State, Alia’s description of a sitting Governor as insane goes to reveal how low, intemperate, uncultured and unfit he is.
“The legion of court cases against Alia seems to have made him lose grasp of himself, as his recent utterances bespeak the abrasiveness of blames on those who lured him away from the altar of God into partisan politics.
