Elders under the aegis of Concerned All Progressives Congress, APC, Benue State stakeholders have called for truce between Governor Hyacinth Alia and the State Executive of the party.
Note that the Governor and the party have been at dagger-drawn over constitution of care taker committees in the 23 local government of the State.
The group comprised top political notch like Sen. Barnabas Gemade, Sen. Joseph Akaagerger,Gen. Lawrence Onoja amongst others.
In a communique read by former Senate President Ameh Ebute, they expressed worry over the recent attacks on the Governor and Government of Benue state, particularly, the content of the communiqué issues on social media by the APC LG chairmen, as well as the resolution of the state working committee, in respect to leadership, meeting and party activities.
The elders regretted that the attacks are a deliberate attempt to distract the Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia led administration from fulfilling his campaign promises to the people.
They particularly, noted that the unfortunate incident by the APC LG Chairmen has opened a vista for the opposition to take full advantage, culminating in a recent motion sponsored by an opposition (PDP) senator from Benue against the government of Benue state.
