By Adeleye Kunle
Special Adviser to the Benue State Governor on Media and Publicity, Mr Terver Akase says his principal, Governor Samuel Ortom places high value on the protection of the lives of the people above his political ambition.
Akase stated this Friday in Makurdi when he was featured on Brothers 90.5 FM’s current affairs programme ‘Burning Issues’.
The Special Adviser said Governor Ortom, since assumption of office, has carried the people of the state along in decision-making, stressing that despite daunting challenges, the Governor has remained focused and committed to taking the state to greater heights.
He condemned the renewed unprovoked attacks on people of the state by armed Fulani herdsmen, saying the attacks were an organized resistance by enemies of the state targeted at the establishment of the Community Volunteer Guards.
Mr Akase maintained that despite the attacks, the Governor would not be distracted in his determination to ensure that Benue land is not surrendered to invaders while guaranteeing the safety of lives and property.
Commenting on the concerns raised by primary school teachers, the Special Adviser noted that it was a national challenge that is not peculiar to Benue State. He appreciated the teachers for their support and understanding, assuring them that the State Government would sustain efforts to meet its obligation
