Benue State Governor, Gabriel Suswam, on Thursday said he was fully in support of the Senate Minority Leader, George Akume’s bid to lead the 8th National Assembly when inaugurated in June.

Suswam reasoned that since there was nobody from the state vying for the position, he was supporting Akume, his predecessor as state governor, to emerge victorious.

He stated this at the State House, Makurdi, on Thursday, while donating eight brand new Toyota Prado SUVs to the Governor-Elect, Chief Samuel Ortom; his wife; the Deputy Governor-Elect, Benson Abounu, and his wife, as part of the peaceful transition arrangement.

He said, “My way of playing politics is all encompassing and I am fully in support of Akume to emerge as the Senate President for the 8th Assembly since he is the only person from Benue vying for that position, which we understand has been zoned to the North Central.”

The governor called on the media to continue to encourage peace and issue-based understanding among different political parties in the country.

He urged media practitioners to extend the same support and cooperation the Peoples Democratic Party enjoyed to the All Progressives Congress in the interest of peaceful existence of Nigeria.

He said, “I want you people (the media) to extend the same support and cooperation our government enjoyed to the incoming administration of APC in the interest of the nation"

Crook. Your days as a free man are numbered.

Soon enough, you'd be held to account for what happend to the state government's shares in BCC and why you had to build a hotel in Makurdi (Metropolitan Hotel) and then concession it to the state government for 100years while you are the state governor. You would have to account for the arbitrary deductions made from the salaries of the state civil servants since august last year. You'd explain why you've been owing workers salaries for months. You'd tell us where Yemisi got the money to build HealthyWays and her shopping plaza in Abuja. Etc, etc, etc.

This guy has got to be the most corrupt governor in Nigeria.

I weep for Nigeria.
Is it not d same Benue state that has been unable to pay workers' salary for 6 months or so?
If the gov elect has any integrity in him,he should reject the cars but U see,PDP ooo,APC ooo,na d same.

What for? Couldn't the money used in purchasing used for salaries?

Okay

Did I just hear somebody say soft landing?

And the incorruptible APC Governor-elect accepted the 8 BRAND NEW SUV worth millions of Naira for himself, his wife, his Deputy and his Deputy's wife.

I suspect this rogue wants to decamp

This guy is one of the evidence when people say PDP are the worst set of people alive.

You cant pay workers for several months but can buy Jeeps

No amount of lobbying will save U. U must return all d money u have looted from d state treasury.

The thing is, those cars have been in the old Government House for very long time, including a lot of Helux vans meant for the police. They are up to 20 in that compound.

New looters are in town.

LET THE LOOTING BEGIN

What?

There's something really wrong with the average black man!

Otherwise, how can an entire race revel in backwardness, underdevelopment and mindless opulence in the midst of staggering poverty?

There's something wrong somewhere!

Bros osun state governor and Amechi are still owning their state workers and pensioners respectively. Osun state governor was throwing money to crowds in lagos during buhari's campaign yet he can't pay five months salary. Amechi nko na APC chief sponsor and he is owning pensioners three months salary. You see nothing different from both parties just that it is an individual thing.

And this 1diot is still owing salaries. The receiver of the gifts is also an 1diot.

Obiagelli:

The madness has an explanation!
