Benue North East Senatorial District: Two Years Under Suswam, the Journey so Far

By David Mzer

When the people of Benue North East Senatorial District went to the polls to elect a Senator on February 23,2019, they wanted someone who will be their voice in the Senate, one who will make Nigerians become aware of their presence in the federal sharing arrangement,one who will integrate the Senatorial district within the scheme of things.

The people found former governor of Benue State, Senator Gabriel Suswam worthy of the task and they unanimously elected him as their Senator with a whopping 148,645 votes.

Shortly after his inauguration as Senator on June 11,2019, the popular saying that a golden fish has no hiding place applied to Senator Suswam.

Suswam was appointed as the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Power. He was also made a member of many other committees in the Senate such as the Petroleum Downstream, Public Accounts, Works, Finance, National security and Intelligence, Senate Services and Committees on Judiciary, Human Rights, and the recently constituted Constitutional Review Committee, amongst others.

After settling down at the Red Chamber to carryout his primary functions of Lawmaking, Legislation and Oversight, Suswam started making efforts to address the challenges of his constituents and Nigerians in general.


Bills and Motions

In performing his primary duty of lawmaking, Senator Suswam has sponsored 6 Bills,which have all passed first reading and are at various stages.

Bills sponsored by Suswam includes:

1. Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (Alteration) Bill, 2019 - to alter the provisions of section 64(3) and 105(3) of the GFRN 1999 to designate a definate and certain day for the inauguration and swearing-in if newly elected members of the National Assembly.

2. Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (Alteration) Bill, 2020 - to alter the provisions of section 291(1) of the GFRN, 1999 to extend the retirement age of Supreme Court and Court of Appeal Justices from 70 years to 75 in order to minimize turnover in membership of Supreme Court, guarantee the stability of the Supreme Court as institution critical to constitutional democracy.

3. Debt Management Office (Establishment, Etc) (Amendment) Bill, 2020

4. Terrorism (Prohibition) Act (Amendment) Bill, 2020 - to prohibit the use of crypto currencies in the payment of ransoms demanded by kidnappers and hostage takers.

5. Tertiary Education Reform Bill, 2020.

6. Armed Forces (Joint Security operation and synergy) Bill, 2020 - to provide the legal framework for joint military operations and ensure accountability regarding shared intelligence etc.

Senator Suswam has also sponsored several motions on the floor of the senate. In December 2020, Senator Suswam gave the people of Ushongo Local Government Area(which falls under his Senatorial District) and the people of Guma local government area( which is outside his district) a Christmas gift by sponsoring the motion titled, "Approval for the restoration of Two (2) State Constituencies from Ushongo State Constituency of Benue State and the restoration of Agasha State Constituency from Guma State Constituency in compliance with the decisions of the Courts and Section 115 of the Constitution.”

Suswam in his lead debate, urged the Senate to note the decision of the Federal High Court Abuja of January 13, 2005 in the case of Ushongo Local Government v. INEC suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/562/2004 which ordered the INEC to restore the suppressed Mata and Mbagwa State Constituencies in Ushongo Local Government Area of Benue State.

He also called attention to the decision of the Supreme Court of October 10, 2018 in the case of INEC v. GUMA LGA and 2 Ors suit No. SC/195/2016 wherein the apex court affirmed the decision of the Court of Appeal delivered on 16/06/2015 in suit No.CA/MK/137/2012 on the immediate restoration of Agasha State Constituency in Guma Local Government of Benue State.

Consequently, the Senate unanimously approved the restoration of three constituencies in Benue state.

The Senate also directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to comply with its resolution which approved the restoration of the three constituencies.

In May 2020, news of the planned increase in electricity tariff with effect from July 1,2020 got to the public.

Senator Gabriel Suswam as the peoples Senator speedily sponsored a motion titled "Power Sector Recovery Plan and Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic."

Suswam, while leading the debate on the general principles of the motion, stated that stable and uninterrupted power supply was a critical factor in the management of COVID-19 patients at isolation and treatment centres nationwide.

According to Suswam, uninterrupted electricity is also key in the proposed upgrade of health facilities and in the manufacturing sector of the economy.

This time also, the Senate unanimously agreed with Senator Suswam, and consequently urged the federal government to suspend the planned electricity tariff increase, which was to take effect in July, citing hardships caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.


To the amazement of everyone, Senator Suswam , in the last two years, has executed laudable constituency projects in the different sectors and fields of human endeavour — education, power, water, critical infrastructure, name it.

In the education sector, Suswam gave scholarship to 80 law school students, with the beneficiaries drawn across the seven local governments that make up his Senatorial district. Each beneficiary received the sum of N100,000. Under the Suswam Foundation, 700 students in higher institutions across the country, drawn from the seven local governments that make Benue North East Senatorial District were given scholarships. Another list of beneficiaries will soon be out for the second batch.

In the area of Basic education, Suswam has facilitated the construction of classroom blocks in public primary schools scattered across Benue North East Senatorial District. These school projects includes: block of 3 classrooms at LGEA Primary School Heagha, Mbagwaza, Ushongo LGA, block of 6 classrooms at LGEA Primary School Tse-Ioralu, Ugondo Logo LGA, block of 3 classrooms at LGEA Primary School Gbor, Tiir, Tongov Katsina -Ala LGA, block of 3 classrooms at LGEA Primary School Saka Mbayenge Council Ward, Ukum LGA.

The Senator's Constituency projects are also felt in the health sector, with the construction of block of maternity ward, at Comprehensive Health Center, Mbaakpur. Mbakyase, Konshisha. These and many more are captured under the 2020 budget.


In the 2021 budget, the Senator has also earmarked many projects for his constituents.

Empowerment /Job Opportunities


Even as a House of Representative member between 1999-2007, Suswam was known for facilitating the appointment and empowerment of not just his constituents but Benue at large. This he has continued as a Senator. So far, Senator Suswam has facilitated the appointment of over 25 youths who have been employed in federal agencies such as Niger Delta Power Holding Company(NDPHC), Nigeria Electricity Regulatory Commission(NERC), Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), Rural Electrification Agency (REA), Nigeria Electricity Liability Management Company (NELMCO) amongst others.


He has also distributed not fewer than 80 motorcycles to ease movement of some of his constituents.

Just few days ago, the distinguished Senator distributed relief materials to victims of herdsmen attacks taking refuge at the IDPs camp in Tordonga.

All these and many more captured here have been completed by Senator Suswam within two years, with many projects ongoing.

For Nigerians, Senator Suswam who is the chairman, Senate Committee on Power is currently working on giving Nigeria an Electricity Act which will provide the legal framework to address the problems associated with the quality of electricity supply in the country.

According to Senator Suswam, "The legal framework that we have in place which regulates the power sector, was set up in 2004, just to enable the government to privatize the sector.


“Now we’ve gone beyond privatisation, and there has to be an electricity act for the country.

"The Act, which should be ready in August, will set a legal framework that would touch on the issue of energy theft, and the sanctions against those who bypass meters.


” It will also give potential investors to come and invest in Nigeria knowing that the legal framework for the country’s power sector protects them.”

It is evident to even pessimist and political opponents that Senator Suswam has written his name in gold in his two years in the senate. One can only wonder the good times that lies ahead for the people of Benue North East Senatorial District with Senator Gabriel Suswam as their representative.

They are clearing the place

Chris6music:
Why re dey cutting trees

We are clearing the forest that served as hideouts for kidnappers and other criminals in Igumale and same location shall host the consolidated timber market, the garri processing factory and the Etenyi Market to become the first ever daily market in Ado Local Government.

We have consulted and secured the consent and support of the host community who have availed us additional land and the clearing so far, happening on both sides of the road has progressed from Igumale up to Ogi.

By this process, we shall generate revenue and also engage our people meaningfully.

I reiterate that, we came for business and we will leave a mark to show that, some serious minded people passed this path.

Barely 48 hours after takeoff and contrary to insinuations that it is a political smokescreen, the Ado Whistle Blower Policy has already led to the arrest of 9 suspected top kidnappers and 1 arms and ammunition dealer within Ado Local Government and other surrounding towns.

Interestingly, some of the suspects were arrested in custody of credible evidences that would greatly advance police investigation and possible prosecution. The team of security men is equally giving those at large a hot chase so as to bring them to face the law.

While saluting the the gallantry of the Security Men, we wish to urge the people to keep calm and sustain their commitment to supporting us with with information to serve them better.

We want to sound this strong note of warning to criminal elements within Ado to surrender themselves, because already we have information at our disposal and we are coming for them.

We said we mean business and we are doing business, a safer Ado is possible.

The first lady of Benue State Her Excellency Dr. Eunice Ortom and her son have tested positive for COVID-19.

Dr. Eunice made the announcement through a press statement she issued

PRESS STATEMENT

Few moments ago this evening, I received my result from the tests earlier carried out on me and others by NCDC personels on routine screening at Government House, Makurdi which returned that I and my son, and some staff are COVID-19 positive.

We have from this moment, gone into total isolation as required by the protocols and would immediately begin the management treatment as adviced by medical experts.

While I have taken the responsibility to personally call every one I can recall to have had recent contact with to go for testing, I advice any one who has had close contact with me in the last 2 weeks and the public to go for screening and testing.

I wish to reiterate that been COVID-19 positive is not a death sentence as evident by the many recoveries recorded thus far so there is no need to panic, but we should continue to be responsible in our actions so as to keep others safe.

I am encouraging people to take preventive measures to be protected and be safe by observing the primary protocols which are

* Wearing of face masks
* Constant washing of hands
* Maintaining Social Distance
* Stay indoors if not necessary to go out.

Stay Safe!! COVID-19 is Real.

Best wishes as always.

Dr. Mrs Eunice Ortom
