Benue: Ortom disappointed the expectation of his enemies – Group

The Coalition of Southern and Middle Belt Youth Leaders Assembly, COSMBYLA, the umbrella body of all the youth groups in the South East, South South, South West and Middle Belt region have commended the Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom, for projects executed by his administration in the state.

In a statement jointly signed by Goodluck Ibem, President General, Coalition of South East Youth Leaders (COSEYL); Terrence Kuanum, Coordinator, Forum of Middle Belt Youth Presidents; Shittu Waheed, Coordinator, South West Youth Leaders Forum (SWYLF); and Tito Zokumor, President South South Youth Forum (SSYF); the coalition also hailed the governor for always standing for the Benue people.

According to the coalition, sponsors of the herdsmen who have been unleashing mayhem on the people of the state, were only aiming at distracting Governor Ortom from giving the Benue people good governance.

The statement reads in part, “We are very aware that the two million IDPs created by the activities of the murderous Fulani terrorists is a well calculated political evil plot by enemies of the state who gathered to pull-down and discredit the wonderful administration of the State Governor.

“But Governor Ortom disappointed the expectation of his enemies and enemies of the state by putting on ground legacy projects like his counterpart Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State who Commission projects on weekly basis.

“Governor Ortom has always stood on the side of his people at all times and has never reneged on his oath which he took on the day he was sworn-in as the executive governor of the state. He is a role model for inspiring leaders.

“The transformational performance of Dr. Ortom showed that he came prepared for governance which is why the enemies of the state can’t believe their eyes and are in doubt that despite all their evil machinations against the state using the Fulani terrorists, Dr. Ortom was not distracted from his determination to serve his people dutifully. What an enigma!

“Governor Ortom’s ability to perform excellently despite all this challenges is one of the seven wonders of the world. He has done well, we commend him”.
