The All Progressives Congress, APC, Benue State chapter has vowed to force the state governor, Samuel Ortom and his deputy, Benson Abounu to seek reelection in 2019.

Yaro made the remark yesterday at the IBB Square in Makurdi, during the celebration of this year’s Democracy Day.

“APC in the state will purchase form for Governor Ortom and his deputy to return in 2019.
