Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, has pleaded for forgiveness over his recent comment against the presidential flagbearer of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar.

Governor Ortom, who was angered by the activities of the Fulani herdsmen in the state, had in reference to Atiku, said he would not support another Fulani president in the 2023 presidential poll.

Criticisms had trailed the governor’s remark, as some loyalists of Atiku and a few other Nigerians accused Ortom of being tribalistic.

But the governor, while responding to questions from journalists in Bauchi, during a consultation meeting by the ‘G-5 Integrity Group’, said his comment was misconstrued.

“I want to say that the statement people are holding on was not what I meant when I was captured saying that.

“But all the same, I know that it would amount to logical fallacy. I want to say to those who are so offended by my remarks, I am very sorry. I didn’t mean that”.

Waiting for Tinubu to also apologise for foisting calamity Buhari on Nigerians.

Jonzing sapiens

Apologies not accept... To hell with ortom the wheel barrow

Way to go..
That's the spirit of sportsmanship!

Atiku

Some of these governors don't know they won't remain in power always

In such position of leadership, you should be an example to the citizens

You are right Mr Man.

Coward!

Good one.

Something Atiku and his people can never ever do, no matter the gravity of the wrong they did.


Yes, I can bet anything that a Fulani man wouldn't have apologized.

The video where he said " To hell with any fulani man"
Never made it to front page. But the video where he is apologising is already on front page.

Nairaland moderators na waoo

Face the truth, to hell with you too.

Childish ortom is a woman he gat no balls

That's what a good leader does

No need to apologise you said the truth.

This confused man, I don't know what people in the state saw in this man in the first place.

Lets carry out small voting between who talks more between Wike and Ortom

Like for Wike
Share for Ortom

Don't make expensive comments if you know you'll apologise

Atiku banked on anti fulani sentiment in 2019 to get votes and even won benue. Now it is working against him

T

He should apologize first to Benue indigenes killed by Fulani marauders whom he couldn't protect their lives and properties

This confused man, I don't know what people in the state saw in this man in the first place.

The confused man is a Governor oooh.
And whether hook or crook
Whether merited or unmerited, it ain't easy to attain that position.

I admire Ortom's effort in standing for his people, but sometimes apply wisdom when dealing with things rather than making a hell of noise like a Woman.

Ortom should calm down, he shouldn't follow the other man and talk without tact.

The truth is that some people are taking this coming election as a đick-measuring contest; their tribe vs my tribe, which is the most foolish thing any right-thinking person should do at this crucial point in this country.
Even if your tribesman wins you wont be immune to bad government, go and ask people in Daura.

For your own good, leave tribalism. Those of you shouting Tinubu upandan know the man wont be able to perform due to old age but you're doing your best to foist him on everybody. Tinubu is content with just getting his name added to the list of Ngerian presidents, even if it means he's president for just 1 week. It's unlikely he'll complete his term if (God-forbid) he wins and Shettima will become president and we all know Shettima has links with Boko Haram.

In the end it's you, foolish urchin, who will suffer and maybe die for it. People were kidnapped on Lagos-Ibadan highway yesterday and it'll only get worse with Tinubu in power. You might be a victim some day.
Use your head

A Northerner wouldn't have apologized.

That statement was totally uncalled for.... The stupid Zombidiots that were masturbating over the comments forgot that their VP is a Fulani man from Muritania

Yes many Normadic Mbororo Herdsmen are evil murderers, that doesn't mean all Fulani must be cancelled for the evil of few

Ortom knows how to get votes and win election using tribal sentiments and insecurity



.

SERIOUSLy some of the activities of the fulani men is Annoying and it can cause aggression.
so apology accepted

The video is not even about his apology

Ortom and Atiku can both go to hell.
Bola Tinubu is the next President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

He doesn't have the balls Wike possesses but he wants to act like him.
