Former Governor of Benue State
and serving Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, George Akume, has
informed President Muhammadu Buhari that his people are not happy with him for
his cold reaction over the killing of his kinsmen in the state.
Akume recalled that Benue people
overwhelmingly voted for Buhari in 2015 despite the fact the then Senate
President, David Mark, who is a member of the PDP hailed from the state.
He called on the president to
help end the killings of citizens in the state.
He said, “Your Excellency, you
could recall that Senator David Mark was Senate President while Suswam was the
Chief Security of the State, yet the Tiv people voted for you in 2015.
“We have no federal project in
Benue State, Ortom does not make law, Benue People made the law, JS Tarka
fought for the unity of our country Nigeria, Mr. President the Tiv people are
not happy about your reaction towards the killing of Tiv farmers by Fulani
herdsman.”
