According to him (Orker Jev): “The primary aim of government is to protect lives and property, some of us were campaigning for APC in 2014 with hope that things will get better not worse. Our lives have taken preference to cows, if you remembered when INEC announced Buhari as the president elect, tears of joy rolled my cheeks, suddenly all the promises made during the campaign never saw the light of the day, I was left with no option but to go home and apologized to my people.
“We have waited for a long time to transform our community development at the national level, but we are where we are today simply because of the selfish interest of our so called leader. This decamping today have marked a greater revolution and transformation in Zone B, Tiv land and Benue state at large.
