Benue Governor Alia Reacts to reported rift with SGF Akume
Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue State has said the rumours circulating about a rift with the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator George Akume, is “pure fiction fabricated by opportunists and merchants of mischief.”
Speaking at a symposium in Makurdi to mark his birthday, Governor Alia described Senator Akume as a “national pride” and the “father of Benue State”.
He dismissed the speculation of discord as a figment of the imagination brewed by those seeking to sow division and profit from instability.
He said: “I want to unambiguously debunk the circulating rumours of discord between the SGF and myself. These speculations exist solely in the imaginative realm of opportunists, instigators of turmoil, and merchants of mischief who thrive on chaos. The said fracas is only a figment of the imagination crafted by those who seek to profit from the crisis.
“For pockets of disenchanted members of our party here in the state, we are already in talks to address various areas of discontent. However, while we try to do so, we shall ensure that the will of the masses who voted us into office, prevails.
“I therefore enjoin each and every one of us to dismiss such baseless notions and focus on the shared commitment to truth, unity, and progress that defines our collective journey.”
