Ortom assures Adoka community of more dividends of democracy

Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom has assured the people of Adoka of more developmental projects in their communities.

Ortom gave this assurance at Aiya-Adoka on Sunday, 6th February, 2022 while speaking at the Ejaje Eja’Alekwu festival and conferment of Chieftaincy titles on some prominent sons and daughters of Adoka land.

The Governor who was represented by his Commissioner for Information, Culture and Tourism, Hon Michael Inalegwu, also thanked the traditional ruler of Adoka, the AlegwuK’Adoka and Ad’Otukpo, HRH Dr Samuel Awulo Onuh and members of his cabinet for finding Barr Paul Harris Ogbole, SAN and others worthy of the Chieftaincy titles, assuring the traditional councils in Benue state of his continuous support.

Inalegwu said the governor would have attended the occasion in person if not because of his involvement in another important engagement, assuring the people of Adoka more dividends of democracy.

“About six schools in six communities in Adoka have been equipped with chairs, tables and other important facilities. There will be a quick end to the perennial water scarcity in Adoka soon and early completion of the going construction of Adoka-Entekpa road linking some neighbouring communities of Apa and Agatu LGAs”, Inalegwu said.

He said, security is a collective responsibility, urged the people of Adoka to unite, live in peace with one another in order to bring developments to their land as no meaningful development can take place in a rancorous and acrimonious environment, assuring the people of his resolve to always protecting the people of the state.

Among the Sons and daughters of Adoka honoured at the memorable occasion include; Barr. Paul Harris Ogbole, SAN (Ogigo Mebe K’Adoka), Mrs Susan Ada Ajenge (Ochanyaba K’Adoka), Prof. Sunday Adokpela (Owujoyi K’Adoka)

Other important dignitaries present at the epoch-making occasion include; King Mohammed Ada Aka Ochacho, his younger brother and reps aspirant for Otukpo/Ohimini Federal Constituency, Hon Alex Ogbe, Comrade James Ewaoche Amedu represented Distinguished Senator Abba Patrick Moro, Hon. Michael Audu (Adoka,/Ugboju), Hon. George Alli (Otukpo LG), Mr Noah MacDickson and others too numerous to mention.
