I'm Ready To Sacrifice My Senate Ambition To Ensure Peter Obi Wins - Gov. Ortom

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9q95kE8KLgE

The Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom, says he is ready to sacrifice his senatorial ambition in the National Assembly elections this Saturday, if it will ensure the victory of the presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi.

Ortom, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is contesting the election in the Benue North-West senatorial district.

His January endorsement of Obi came after months of refusal to support the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, whose emergence in May 2022 was viewed by several high-ranking party members as unfair.

The Benue governor reiterated his support for the former Anambra State governor while addressing members of the Igbo community in the state on Monday.

“For me, it’s not even that I’m contesting an election. Yes, the form was bought for me by the people of Benue State. I’ve gone round; they have accepted that they will vote [for] me,” he said.

“But if I’m to sacrifice my senatorial ambition for Peter Obi to win, so shall it be,” he said to loud cheers from the crowd.

He added, “I know that if [any group of] people are connected in this world, they are the Igbo. This is the opportunity you have to say that an Igbo man from the South-East is president.”

Ortom identified with those who believed in the unity of Nigeria and working together, saying it was for this reason that he accommodates everybody.

“So, let us not miss this opportunity that God himself is providing. The youth have told me, my own people have told me – stakeholders here, traditional rulers, party people across party lines. Obi’s matter is not about APC or PDP or SDP or any other party. It’s about Nigeria.”

Speaking to the crowd, he told them that they have the population, adding that they should thank God for “what is unfolding”.

Ortom, your efforts to make Nigeria great again is being noted by everyone.

Yes, he knows that....

Nigerians have chosen President Peter Obi(GCFR)

We know he will win, but corrupt politicians won't allow him, they are masters of rigging, they are already on it tooth and nail to rig to their favour

Ihordspy is reading with pains and bitterness. So is yarimo and moh2

Wow

Ortom the cat with 20 lives


A Daniel in the Lion's den NOT like Wike who is relatively safe in far away Rivers

Thank you my incoming minister. Ortom, na man you be. Thank you for daring it all and telling us your mind

Two things stand out for me in his speech here:

1. That the choice of Obi's candidacy did not just come from him but from stakeholders in his state (he mentioned Youths, traditional rulers, and people across party lines) who told him to choose Obi on behalf of Benue people.

2. His calling out of the few Igbo politicians who initially opposed Obi and asking how they will continue to complain of marginalization now that the whole country is supporting Obi for President.

God bless Ortom for his Courage

You will go to the Senate to help Peter Gregory Obi make honest decisions.

Even we Yoruba Christian's will never vote for Muslim Muslim ticket

They wouldnt rig this one. Especially if you come out to vote.

If there is high voters turnout, coupled with the significant changes in the electoral law(BVAS, electronic transmission of votes, no incidence forms, etc), they would not be able to rig.

Please come out to vote. Also, please tell everyone in your influence circle(family members, relatives, friends, church/mosque members, colleagues at work etc) who have PVC to come out and vote. Lets save Nigeria

Some people are still ready to sacrifice to make Nigeria better
