Former Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has debunked the rumour spreading like wild harmattan fire that he is decamping to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ortom, denied the rumour during the executive meeting of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Monday, February 26th, 2024.
He said: “The rumours that I’m decamping to APC, I’m not going anywhere; this one that they are calling me the leader of the party in the state which comes with lots of responsibilities, I will not leave it for anybody.”
“APC has not invited me to join it. I am not a busybody who will be moving from one place to another, I am committed to my party (PDP). We must respect the party at all times. Let us strategise to return to power. Now is the time to plan, we must plan ahead of them as they did in 2023.”
“PDP is the only party that is strong and receptive to the yearnings of the people. With our new commitment, we will make the party more vibrant for tomorrow.”
“We shall succeed in future elections. I do not have any friction with Moro and Suswam.”
