GOVERNOR Samuel Ortom has alleged that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is planning to rig the 2023 general elections, hence its rejection of elctronic transmission of results.
Governor Ortom made this known yesterday.
The governor, however, warned that Benue State is a People’s Democratic Party state and whoever is coming during the next elections with the mind to rig should steer clear.
“I have said this and I am saying it again, Benue is a PDP State and we will not allow anyone to come and rig elections where they do not have support, because in Benue State APC don’t have support of the people, it is the PDP that has the support, so any attempt to rig the forthcoming elections here, will be vehemently resisted,” he warned.
According to him, “Benue voters are well educated and enlightened, so they are fully equipped and mobilised and are ready at any given time to defend their votes so anybody who stand on their way will be shown his or her way out.”
