The Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, has called on the presidential candidate of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), ATIKU ABUBAKAR, to apologise to him and people of the state over his outburst against him and the people.
The governor also told Atiku not to think that Fulanis alone could make him the president.
Ortom Stated this when he addressed youths from Jemgbagh axis which comprises Gboko, Buruku and Tarka local government areas who protested in solidarity with him.
The former vice president drew the ire of the governor during the interactive forum organised by the Arewa Consultative Forum in Kaduna recently when he (Atiku) accused Ortom of profiling Fulanis.
Atiku had also in his condolence message said, “When our people are well integrated into communities where they live, work, pay taxes and raise their children, they’d be obligated to reciprocate the love and acceptance”.
