Gov Ortom’s Former CPS Condemns Air Force Base Security Conduct, Describes It As Unfortunate
A leading Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Governorship aspirant in Benue State, Mr Terver Akase, has condemned in strong terms the conduct of security personnel attached to the gate of the Air Force Base Makurdi, who denied Governor Samuel Ortom entry while he was going to receive the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo earlier today.
A Press Statement issued on February 12, 2022, by Nathaniel Nongu, Director Media and Publicity to Terver Akase Campaign Organization said Mr Akase, describes the action of the security personnel as unfortunate and unwarranted in a democratic setting.
He says Governor Ortom did what was noble and commendable going to receive the Vice President even when he was only passing through Benue to another state.
Mr Akase contends that if the Presidency did not set out to embarrass the Governor, why did it have to write and inform him about the Vice President’s visit?
He enjoins other Nigerians, particularly those aspiring for the office of Governor across party lines, to condemn the action of the Makurdi Air Base security personnel who were responsible for the incident, stressing that it can happen to anyone else tomorrow.
