Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has given reasons why he dumped the All Progressives Congress (APC) like bad habit… “The Benue State Chapter of the ruling All Progressives Congress has continue to launch an attack on me.”
“The youths’ banned me from making a trip to Abuja on Wednesday July 25, 2018 where I am to meet with APC leadership. This morning, I had wanted to go to Abuja to attend the meeting, but some youths in the state refused; they asked me to go back.
“But let me formally inform this gathering that I have forwarded my resignation letter from the APC to the chairman of my council ward and he has promised to join me in the new party.”
“As I talk to you, 10 out of 17 state lawmakers of the All Progressive Congress are ready to follow me to the new party. May I formally announce to you that I have formally moved to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.”
