Ortom's blame games against Akume won't work..... Electorates are wiser now - Aare De Oracle



The governor of Benue state,  Samuel Ortom, isn't a genuine man at all,  and I am pretty sure that the people of the state  will witness more hard times like they are witnessing now if the man still gets elected for a second term. 

How can a governor who is supposed to be Honourable be talking with both sides of his mouth like this?

Up till last week,  he was blaming all the killings and his inability to pay salaries on Gabriel Suswam and the PDP but now that he has rejoined the PDP,  he today went on air and said that his inability to pay salaries was from the APC. 

He said and I quote: "APC never wanted me to pay salaries" What an incredible talk from a whole sitting governor?

How did the APC or Senator Akume whom I know he was referring to prevented him from paying salaries? Did Akume or the APC take possession of the Federal Allocations,  IGR,  Bailout,  Paris Refunds,  Commecial Loans and others while the governor was still a member of the party?  Or did Akume instruct him not to pay salaries?  Or did APC or Akume collects all the monies that are coming into the state from him? 

It is even on record that Ortom didn't give any tangible money to the senator throughout their three years political marriage.  It is even on record that Ortom only awarded one single contract to Akume,  and he hasn't even been mobilized for the said contract up till today.  So how did Akume or APC prevent the governor from paying salaries?

To me,  this allegation is too cheap, and the governor aims to use it to brainwash the electorates so they can possibly see him as a Messaiah if given a second chance. 

Also on security,  the governor said that he is being molested in the APC because he signed the Grazing Bill. Aren't they (Fulani herders)  killing in other states that don't have this same Bill?

Was it APC or Akume that asked him to bring Tershaku to head the Benue livestock guards, a security network which was masterminding all the killings in the state, and blamed it on Fulani herders? 

Was it APC or Akume that asked the governor to give out the  weapons which were caught with Tershaku and his people when they were arrested? 

Ortom must stop this blame game against Akume and prepare to explain to the electorates why he was paying N10 million monthly  to the Fulani people for twenty eight months.
