Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom has said that the condemnation of the proposed cargo airport in the state by the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Saad Abubakar was borne out of ignorance.

Ortom stated this while fielding questions from newsmen shortly after he commissioned ambulances purchased for primary healthcare centers in some local government areas by the Millennium Development Goal (MDGS) yesterday.

“The Sultan spoke in ignorance. Anyone criticizing the cargo airport project is either ignorant, illiterate no matter his level of education, or doing so out of mischief or jealousy.”

The Governor who also took a swipe on former Lagos State Police Commissioner, Alhaji Abubakar Tsav for speaking against the building of the cargo airport in the state disowned him as an indigene of Benue State.

Tsav is not an indigene of Benue State. We are all aware that his people disowned him and withdrew the Chieftaincy title they conferred on him some years back. He has written more than 20 petitions against me. Let him go to Kano where he belongs and leave us alone in Benue. Tsav is one of those who stole N107 billion and we are asking them to bring back our money.”

He noted that that ambulances was neither meant to be used by the sole administrators or meant for conveying dead bodies but to be used for saving lives and warned that anyone found using them illegally would be sanctioned.

“We are not here to do propaganda but here to impact positively on the lives of our people. The ambulances are not meant for carrying corpse but for the living. They are not meant for the sole administrator. But to be used for the purpose it is meant for. Anyone found using them unlawfully would be sanctioned.”

He is Igede, and as it is, igedes does not know their left from their right in benue, they'd rather support an Igbo man to be Governor of Benue than support Tiv or Idoma.


That is why he is protesting for Tinubu in Lagos.

We don't celebrate failures in APC. Omenka has never been seen on this forum supporting this man. He's not like those guys from the other side who would always support their own even if he's failing or has failed.

Stop Saying Igedes don't know their left from right They are minorities in Benue Yes

In Nigeria Majority will always have their way... But Where is Omenka aka Progressive01

Progressive01:
I've not said i'm omenka so yall should put a lid on that bullshiit.

That said, Ortom is just as confused as they come (apologies to Kyase). He should be more concerned about fixing rural roads whuch are in terrible state of disrepair, like the Achoho-Oju road. Drive down that road once and you end up at the mechanic's spending a fortune fixing your car, and there are dozens other such roads in the state.

Let him fix the roads, fix the state workers salaries and then prepare to retire to running Oracle group of companies from 2019, because no one is gonna retain him in the government house.

A state where you can never in your lifetime find a graduate looking for a job.

Akume promoted Okada work to the highest maximum when some state had already staryed the ban of okada.

Suswam, his only achievement was selling benue portland cement ( the highest employer of labour and revenue avenue) to Dangote leaving the state with no single state owned industry. Making cultism look legalised.

Ortom is here to build them a cargo airport when they have an airforce base with an airstrip.

Why not pay salaries?
