Benue State House of Assembly, yesterday, approved Governor Samuel Ortom’s request to suspend 6 chairmen, chairmen of local government councils, all belonging to the All Progressives Congress (APC), for three months over “gross misconduct, misappropriation of funds and abuse of office.”
Those affected are Mr. Austin Okwoche, Chairman of Oju Local Government; Mrs Juliana Audu, Makurdi; Terdoo Kenti, Kwande, Francis Ogwuche of Okpokwu; Mrs. Beckie Orpin, Gboko and Mrs Comfort Echoda, Agatu.

Ortom’s correspondence to the House was sequel to petitions from councillors of the affected councils.

According to the correspondence read to members by the Speaker, Mr. Titus Uba, “the request for their suspension was based on the advice of the state Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Michael Gusa, that the action was necessary to enable investigation into the allegations against the affected chairmen and vice chairmen.”

He also stated that the correspondence was in compliance with provisions of Benue State Local Government Law.

U won't see dem here. Hypocrite !!

Of APC retaliates in another state nobody should come here crying like a baby

Nice 1

Well you've less than 4 months as Governor.

Yes and there was serious protest in the effected local government by the people. With the people saying Ortom enough is enough.

With the LGA autonomy under the Governor, I don't know why these Chairmen refused to decamp with him to PDP last year. They'd be at the receiving end

GOD bless you my Governor

Everything is fair in war.

Shame On Him

Waiting for ipob pigs to come and hail him as usual

The only governor/Human suffering from WOMENOPAUSE.

Instead of making friends that will wish you farewell on the 29 may, you are creating more enemies.

ORTOM means ORTOMATIC back to home.

The margin of the defeat awaiting you is unimaginable.

Why suspending them he should sack them outrightly.

Fayemi sacked all pdp chairmen in ekiti so why is Ortom suspending them?

Mr Ortom pls sack them all, apc are evil they will tumble your administration.

Will it stop jime from thrashing the failure?

A.P.C. hoodwink well-meaning Nigerians. Our expectations inclines to the inevitability of a new era that will ultimately dispel the raging storms of conflicts across the country from the brigandage of the Fulani herdsmen to the Boko haram
apc has failedZOMBIES will die of heart attack on February 19 when pdp must have recorded resounding victory in KATSINA state and all through Nigeria.In a country that required urgent attention in terms of security, infrastructure and robust foreign policy, Buhari is not fit to be a district head not to talk of managing a complex nation like Nigeria.
SAI AtikuObi for prosperous Nigeria...

APC HAS ALOT TO LEARN
TIME IS SLEEPING OFF APC

Errrrm
Even if I'd vote for all PDP candidates, I wouldn't for Ortom.
He should have been made a woman by God.

Ortom has learnt to play APC brand of politics just 3yrs of mingling with those people.

Good a thing he left them when he did, otherwise he would have been doing things that his religion frowns against.

Well, nothing bad about your comment, you're a Nigerian, why would you be different in your opinion? But remember that your cry and wailing will be louder if the heat should be turned on the useless House of Assembly or Ortom.
I'm sure that people like this one has called Buhari a tyrant
