Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom has come out to assure residents of the state that he’ll keep guaranteeing their security and proper welfare.

The governor recently revealed this via a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, CPS, Terver Akase, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, the death and resurrection of Jesus is a period when Christians should draw closer to God to reap from His grace and mercy in the face of adversities, so he wants his people to take advantage of Easter.

He then urged the people to sustain the support they have been giving to his administration, so he can keep providing greater development in various sectors of the economy.

His words, “The Governor believes that it is only when the people support authorities in building a crime-free society that the government’s efforts at improving the standard of living can fully be achieved.”

“Governor Ortom is confident that the current economic and security challenges facing Nigeria will be overcome, for the country to move to the next stage of development.”

“He urges people of the state to continue to show love to one another as Christ Jesus taught his followers and wishes Benue people and other Nigerians, home and abroad, joyful Easter celebrations.”
