ORTOM SYMPATHIZES WITH APC OVER CHAIRMAN’S MURDER

Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom commiserates with the All Progressives Congress, APC in the state over the murder of the party’s Chairman in Ohimini Local Government Area, Mr Boniface Okloho.

Governor Ortom strongly condemns the killing and urges security agencies to ensure that those responsible are apprehended for prosecution.

He describes the act as barbaric, anti-democratic and capable of derailing the electoral process in the area.

The Governor says violence in any form has no place in democracy, and stresses that those who take the lives of others on account of politics are the real enemies of the State.

Governor Ortom sympathizes with the Okloho family, the people of Ohimini as well as the leadership and members of APC in the State.

He prays God to grant the soul of the deceased eternal rest.
