Olalekan Adetayo, Abuja

Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, on Tuesday said there was no other credible candidate for the 2019 presidential election that has the capacity to move Nigeria forward apart from President Muhammadu Buhari.

Ortom, a governor elected on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress, said this in an interview with State House correspondents shortly after he met with Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

While saying he is happy seeing Buhari “bouncing every day,” the governor prayed that God will help the President to lead the nation till 2023.

Ortom said, “I came to appreciate the President and to encourage him to be steadfast and committed to his leadership.

“I believe that what God brought him to achieve in this country, he will definitely achieve it.

“Now we see him bouncing every day to the glory of God. We appreciate this and we look forward that God will help him to take us through 2015 to 2019 and then 2019 to 2023.

“That is our prayer because for now, there is no credible candidate as far as I know that has the capacity to take Nigeria out of where we are today.

“I believe Mr. President has the capacity and let God sustain his health and consummate his healing so that Nigeria can be on the right path.”

What an unfortunate statement from a demented fellow. So in a country with 180M. Only an uneducated fellow is fit for president

KWANKWASO IS UR CHOICE 2019

The wheelbarrow Governor.. .

dis man brain is made-up wheelbarrow tyres

These days, I realize I naturally ignore some news items; chief of such is silly and idiotic utterances oozing out of some known politicians and wannabe statesmen.

What has benue state done to inherit such a demented fool as governor??

True. There is no politician in Nigeria that can defeat PMB in an election.

But for you Ortom, your case is the direct opposite.

This unfortunate wheelbarrow governor is even talking. Fulani's boy

ortom is a failure

That's jubrin

see the kain ppl una say make i dey pity for, lol

I don't mean to be pessimistic but at this rate, we are doomed!

What's tha business?

Stupid statement from a useless fellow who calls himself a governor. Statements like this justifies my stance that no sane mind survives in Nigerian politics. It's either you go early or your thinking and actions is so corrupted that your sanity would be questioned sometimes.

It was foolishness that even brought buhari on us, what were his antecedents, what was his qualifications, nothing, sentimentalist failure was repackaged for us to buy and we bought. Now we don open the leather to find out that the fresh vegetables inside leather is not actually fresh but a rotten piece of shit and this wheel barrow governor insists he is the best qualified. This is an insult to every qualified person.

This useless governor should be queried on what positive change he has brought to benue people except dashing out wheel barrows, Fulani herdsmen are clearing villages and he hasn't spoken against the federal government for the killing of his people.

We deserve the leaders we get, 2019 he will share rice and win the next election and the suffering continues

Both Buhari and Orton will be booted out come 2019 because Nigeria can and must do better

This joke is better than Akpos
