Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, on Tuesday said he had fulfilled his promise to send his former boss, George Akume, into retirement.

Akume, who was the All Progressives Congress’ senatorial candidate for Benue North-West, lost to his Peoples Democratic Party’s opponent, Orker Jev.

Ortom spoke during a press conference held at the Government House, Makurdi.

The governor boasted that everything he said politically concerning Akume had come to pass.

He said, “Tell me one thing I told you before that has never come to pass. Anything l tell you must come to pass because I don’t just say it. I speak from the inspiration of God.

“I told you that I would send Akume into retirement. You can now see it happening.

“People who play God should know that their end will be disastrous. I have read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation and I know that anyone that compares himself to God can never survive.

“God is real. Psalm 24 said the earth and its fullness thereof belong to God.

“So, when people begin to play God, they are taking the position of God. Their end will be disastrous because you cannot share the glory of God.”

Ortom said he was sure of victory in the forthcoming governorship election.

“There is no hurdle to scale over my governorship election in the state,” he said.

Ok

Are you sure you will survive your own seat?

So, now it's your own time
to play God abi?

My people have a saying that;

"you don't insult the crocodile until
you have crossed the river".

Your 'river crossing' is coming up
on 9th March & baba crocodile is hungry & angry.

How can you say you retire someone that has access to federal power?
If we are talking about people that got retired permanently on Saturday, we are talking about Obasanjo and Saraki.
Last last you will be atikualright

Prepare to retire too Ortom. Just few days to your retirement.

Stupid people.....

Did your bible also tell you not to pay salaries?

Buhari that is the commander in chief didn't even boast half as Akpabio did. He dismissed his opponent ss of no consequence saying that the PDP didn't present him with a worthy opponent
