The Senator representing Bayelsa
East, Ben Murray-Bruce, has condemned President Muhammadu Buhari as well as All
Progressives Congress, APC, governors for not paying a visit to the Benue State
governor, who is also a member of the party.
Bruce has said that Governor
Samuel Ortom of Benue State should not be in the APC because the party does not
value him.
He made these comment few days
after the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, and his Ekiti State counterpart,
Ayodele Fayose, paid a condolence visit to the governor.
Both visiting governors, who are
members of the PDP, also made monetary donations to the state for victims of
the attacks.
Mr. Bruce flayed the APC for its
perceived cold attitude towards the mayhem going on in one of the states
controlled by their party.
“What is Governor Ortom still
doing in the APC? Benue and Ortom don’t belong in the APC? Has the APC
President visited him to condole with the state?
“How many APC Governors have
contributed to help the victims? What benefit has Ortom and Benue derived from
voting for the President?” Mr. Bruce tweeted.
He expressed disappointment on
how the president visited Nasarawa state to commission schools despite the
killings going on in several parts of the county.
“Will @realDonaldTrump
or@theresa_may go to a state in their nation to commission a school when its
neighbouring state has just suffered from a horrific mass killing?
“What would it have cost the
President to also visit Benue and sympathise with people who voted massively
for him?” he added.
