Go and fix the rot in Benue State- Gov. Wike blast Gov. Ortom

Governor of Rivers State, Barr. Nyesom
Ezenwo Wike has blasted Benue State
Governor, Samuel Ortom for daring to
campaign against his government in Rivers
State for the upcoming election tomorrow.
.
.
Samuel Ortom was among the top party
dignitaries who graced the grand finale for the
rally of All Progressive Congress (APC) in Port
Harcourt, Rivers State capital on Thursday. .
.
It was alleged that the Benue Governor, while
trying to canvass for votes from Rivers
electorate for his political party, made some
sweeping and ‘ungentle-man’ utterances
against the current state government under
Barr. Wike, the statements which the Rivers
Governor found unpalatable. .
.
Reacting to the development, Gov. Wike said
the Benue Governor made a ‘busy-body trip to
Rivers, abandoning all the rots he has created
in Benue.”Wike particularly took a swipe on
the Benue Governor for not paying salaries for
the record 10 months in his state. .
.
He, therefore, advised Ortom to go back to his
state and clear the backlogs of salary arrears,
even as he accused Ortom of borrowing a lot
of money and using bailout funds to execute
private businesses. .
. “That one that cannot pay salaries to his
workers for almost one year? That one that
Fulani herdsmen have almost finished his
people and he cannot do anything? Do you
want to be like Benue?” Wike queried. .
.
Gov. Wike also advised Ortom to go back to
his State and rescue Benue people from the
shackles of Fulani Herdsmen and other
insurgents who are “killing people like flies”.
