Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue state on Tuesday said he has fulfilled his promise to retire Senator George Akume from the National Assembly.

Akume, a former Benue governor, incumbent Senator representing Benue North West senatorial district and leader of APC in the state lost his fifth term bid to Emmanuel Orker Jev of PDP.

The governor who had been at logger-head with Akume since defecting from the APC to join PDP in July last year, while reacting to Jev’s victory, posited that what happened at the polls was the will of God.
