Popular singer, 2Face Idibia has come out to question why an Idoma man can’t be governor of Benue State.

He recently had his say via his social media page, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, Idoma, like many other places in the state, is a part of Benue, so he doesn’t see any reason why the next governor of the state cannot come from there.

His words,

WOW.
