2019 Elections: In defence of Benue (Opinion)

By : Bula Wilfred

The Inspector General of police was ORDERED to relocate to Benue at the height of the Benue massacres. He dis-obeyed the order. No feathers were ruffled. Some instead, called Ortom a drowning man and got doubly promoted within the year. While our homes were defencelessly ravaged.

How I wish they responded with 6 commissioners of police posted to the state to arrest the situation as they have done JUST for an election to install a continuity of the carnage.

Maybe, just maybe, many of those lost souls would have today added their votes for the re-election of SAMUEL ORTOM.

but life is for the living. We must protect our today to preserve our tomorrow.

Vote clean. Vote clear. Vote against authoritative impositions. Vote for your independence and the safeguard of your heritage.

Samuel Ortom!
