The lawmaker representing Benue North-West Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Senator Emmanuel Orker Jev on Sunday said he was full of regrets campaigning for President Muhammadu Buhari and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to achieve power in 2015.

Orker-Jev who dumped the APC for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in August 2018 said made the disclosure while featuring as a guest on Channels Television programme ‘Sunday Politics’ monitored by DAILY INDEPENDENT.

While lamenting that the APC is a party of deceit, he said the party has done worse things of what it accused the PDP was doing and has also failed to fulfill its promises to Nigerians.

“APC has proven to be a party of deceit and I take responsibility for that.  I preached APC and I have my reason why I was supporting Buhari’s candidature then”.

“I believe that considering that his old age and when he came and presented himself as president, I thought it wasn’t because he wanted to amass wealth or not because of any other reason but to  move Nigeria forward. That was my expectation. And I am not God”.

“I preached that but somehow he came and they are not doing exactly what they promised to do. In fact, they have disappointed Nigerians. Everything they accused the PDP of doing, they have gone from bad to worse.”

PrinceOfLagos:
Power is returning to PDP in 2023

Nigerians really suffered in this APC government

Aufbauh:


We keep hearing this online since 2019 whereas ordinary Nigerians keep voting for the APC.
People are actually moved by what they wanted and not what you want.

Besides Orkev Jev has been in the NASS since ages and has hardly had a meaningful impact on his constituency.

The PDP members bragging to have magic wands should show us the scorecards of their Governors in respective states in comparison to their APC counterparts. He that is faithful in a little will be faithful in more.

JAMO84:
But you don't regret campaigning for Ortom, who is top three of the most useless governors in the history of mankind.



If not for Buhari's bail out fund and Paris club refund, Benue would have been dead by now.

nzeobi:



What do you mean by buharis bail out, is buhari the owner of the money.

nzeobi:


Some Nigerians voted APC candidate in the rerun elections and not buhari.
Aketi as a governor is very different from buhari and anybody that's not ashamed of buharis performance is an idiot and a bigot who will not end well

PrinceOfLagos:

JAMO84:
If he didn't give them, can you arrest him?


Bail out is not in the Constitution, he gave them out of emphaty so that their workers won't die of hunger.

Aufbauh:


You're really a poor political observer.
It is rather the other way round cus most people voted the APC because of Buhari.

For example, in Benue where there is a propaganda of Fulani herdsmen killing all farmers in the state. Buhari still got more votes in the state than the APC Governorship candidate and the senators of the zones respectively.

SarkinYarki:
The day Buhari leaves office will be considered Nigerias second independence

nzeobi:


They voted because he induced and scammed them with trader moni the way he scammed you

Aufbauh:


I can relate with your pain & frustration.
Ndo!

nzeobi:


You are the one who is pained and frustrated cos those who made you promises are not fulfilling it

Aufbauh:


Interestingly I'm enjoying the government and the way the administration is dealing with lazy folks and people of vile.
I campaigned vigorously for the APC and I'm not disappointed.
If I give you a glimpse of what I've benefitted so far from this administration you'll run crazy and shed blood.

I'm not a blind supporter without stake unlike you that even in the PDP you're abysmally infinitesimal

nzeobi:


List 3 things you have benefited aside the fact that a co Muslim like you is a Muslim and your 30k BMC salary and I will list 5 ways you are worse than me.

Do you even have any reasonable thing doing aside loitering nairaland to make senseless comments

I'm not a narcissist like you guys so there's no need to talk of my person on an anonymous forum of this nature.
I can understand how frustrated you are probably because some of the illicit ways are blocked. So it's really justifiable for your ceaseless and senseless wailing.

I'd know that if you get the chance to be connected to this 30k or any of the relief fund you'll be the most happiest.

However I'll not cease to be taunting, mocking and laughing at you guys as I'd catch my online cruise. #pepperdemgang.
