Gov. Ortom: Wike a dependable ally, I cannot abandon him for Atiku

Gov. Samuel Ortom of Benue said he cannot abandon Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers because he has proved to be a trusted and dependable ally.

 

Ortom disclosed this at a banquet in honor of Wike, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, Okezie Ikpeazu, and Seyi Makinde on Sunday in Makurdi.

 

He disclosed that when bandits (suspected to be Fulani herdsmen) attacked him, Wike was the first person to condemn it with emphasis that if they kill him they have killed Nigeria.

 

Ortom said Wike did not keep quiet and spoke without any fear.

 

“When Benue was under siege, he donated N250 million and he subsequently spent over N700 million to support the state to tackle the humanitarian crisis occasioned by the unwarranted attacks.

He also disclosed that when two markets in the state were burnt, Wike donated N200 million each.

 

“Is he not a worthy friend? He is a worthy friend and we are working together to liberate the country,” he stated.

 

He said that he would not support the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, stressing that any of Atiku’s supporters is his enemy.

 

“I am not going to support any Fulani man to continue to do injustice to my people unless my people tell me to do otherwise,” he said.
