Ortom cautions Nigerians against inflammatory statements on security issues
The Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom has urged Nigerians to refrain from making unguarded and inflammatory statements concerning security issues in the country.
Governor Ortom spoke Monday, January 30th, 2023 at the Government House, Lafia during a condolence visit to the Nasarawa State Governor, Engr. Abdullahi Sule over the death of his son, Hassan Sule.
Ortom who sympathized with Governor Sule over the demise of his son and recent killings in Nasarawa state urged people to restrain from making comments that create confusion.
“I want to implore people, particularly those in high places to restrain themselves from making utterances that will aggravate the problem and create confusion and apportion blame to people. I am really not happy with some utterances coming from very responsible people instead of trying to find out what happened,” Ortom lamented.
He said rather than making unguarded statements, people can verify any issue, emphasising that “As Governors, our lines are at the disposal of the public. People can access us through our aides and security personnel, instead of making inflammatory statements that are not verified.”
According to the Governor, in Nigeria today we have a general security problem that should not be left in the hands of the President or Governors alone to solve it.
