From Uche Nnorom, Makurdi
Immediate past Governor of Benue State Chief Samuel Ortom has reiterated his readiness to make himself available to respond to issues bordering on his administration whenever the need arises.
The former Governor said in a press statement signed by his media aide Terver Akase on Wednesday, that he is capable of responding to the issues being raised against him and other officials of the previous government and has always made known his belief in the rule of law.
While deeply appreciating all the concerns being expressed by different people over his harassment and those who served his administration in form of petitions to anti-graft agencies, arrests and impoundment of vehicles, Chief Ortom however, called for calm and urged those making statements regarding the situation to exercise restraint and not heat up the polity.
“Chief Ortom is grateful to all his supporters and well wishers for their prayers and messages of goodwill”, the statement read.
