Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has said the judgment
of the Court of Appeal on the 2019 state governorship election is a victory for
the people of the state who gave him a second term mandate.
The governor on Thursday said the appellate court verdict
has not only validated the earlier judgment of the Governorship Election
Tribunal but also confirmed the choice of Benue voters in the 2019 polls.
He once more returned all the glory and praise to God
Almighty for giving him the opportunity to lead the state for another term.
Ortom also deeply appreciated the leadership and members of
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state, as well as Benue people for the
support given to him.
He specially commended his legal team for its outstanding performance
at the Tribunal and the Court of Appeal.
The governor stressed that the task of building the state is
the responsibility of its entire people. He therefore restates his call on the
candidate of All Progressives Congress, APC for the 2019 governorship election,
Emmanuel Jime and other contestants in the last election to join hands with him
to develop Benue State.
Ortom emphasized the willingness of his administration to
collaborate with sons and daughters of the state irrespective of political
differences, ethnicity, religion and place of origin, for a greater Benue.
