Samuel Ortom,have Withdrawn his Support for the Presidential Candidate PDP.

The Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom, yesterday appeared to have withdrawn his support for the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP, Atiku Abubakar after accusing him of belittling him as governor and working against the interest of the people of Benue.

Ortom seemed to have been angered by Atiku’s comments on the recent killings by suspected herdsmen in his state after the former vice president appeared to have justified the recent killings when he said that the condemnable acts were due to sustained clashes between farmers and herders.

His comments are coming on the heels of the elder statesmen in Benue, Minda Leaders of Thoughts, withdrawal of support for Atiku, accusing him of hate speech and profiling of Benue people.

The Governor also alleged that Atiku is working with Miyetti Allah.
