Election: Benue PDP Chieftains Disown Ortom Over Peter Obi

Two prominent members of the Peoples Democratic Party in Benue State have disowned the state governor, Samuel Ortom, over his choice of candidate for the Saturday presidential election in the state.

Former Minister of Power and Steel, Professor Iyorwuese Hagher, and former Minister of Interior, Senator Abba Moro, on Monday, at a town hall meeting organised by professionals for Atiku claimed that none of the presidential candidates had the potential and experience like the PDP’s Atiku Abubakar.

The PDP chieftains urged the participants to go down to the grassroots and draw support for Atiku.

This contradicts the position of Governor Ortom who last week drummed support for the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
