Fulani steer clear of North central we don't need you

The only man who felt the pains of his people and genuinely defected from herdsmen party for the sake of his people..
PDP is not a better option though, but this man deserves due respect...
I hope his people will appreciate his sacrifice rather selling their birth right for spoon of porridge

Even TB Joshua could have predicted that.

APC na Satan & Miyetti Allah Party.

For daring and rejecting the sons of futa jalon from conquering Benue, his second term is already guaranteed.

Its about to go down..Apc is a no no in Benue..Not after the non chalant attitude of Mr Dullard.

Good for the people of Benue, this man actually left rge ruling party when he felt his people were not protected by the government after all his plea and cry fell on the deaf ears of Mr. President.
Let him first of clear salary backlog and win the heart of his people once more then he will be victorious at the end of it all. He should also settle all political diferences he has with Gabriel Suswam to further weaken George Akume

Ortom is an abomination

The daftie called Ortom, who owes workers’ salary for many months and pension payments for years, in spite of receiving several handouts from the FG; and who has no single project attributable to his reign of over 3 years seeks 2nd term!

Since we like rewarding failure in Nigerian politics, Benue people will likely re-elect the nincompoop.

Interesting.
