Benue APC asks Ortom to apologise to Buhari over campaign of calumny

Ortom who made this known to newsmen at the government house in Markurdi said although there are evidence of malpractices including non-transmission of results electronically during the conduct of the election, he is taking the decision to allow peace reign, just as the Bible in John 3:27 says “A man can receive nothing, except it is given to him from heaven.”

He assured the people of Benue State that he will continue to provide selfless service in all sectors of development beyond the end of his tenure on May 29, 2023.

He also appealed to all those he may have offended in the course of serving the state and Nigeria, because he has also forgiven all who offended him.
