He inherited a treasury that had been emptied by successive previous administrations \u2013 and he sought and succeeded in repatriating billions of dollars of stolen funds from overseas,\u201d the statement reads.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd the President brought forward the first and only plan to address farmer-herder clashes in 100 years, supporting states to rediscover grazing reserves and create ranching lands that have successfully reduced tensions while increasing harmony and saving lives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a President who has not failed to pay the salary of those working for the federal government and declared the failure of states to do so; a national disaster.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo avert this, he had, at various times lent money to the states in excess of N1.682 trillion, and Benue, Mr Ortom\u2019s state, did not miss out on all occasions: Salary Bailout, Excess Crude Loan and Budget Support loan, each repayable in 20 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMr Ortom, an officeholder who collected on all occasions, currently holds the country\u2019s longest record of unpaid salaries and pensions, has no reason, absolutely no reason, to blame President Buhari for the mess in which he put his state and its workers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shehu said since Ortom claimed his predecessors created the arrears, it was his business to prove that he was better by paying salaries promptly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInstead of doing that, he joined them! And while he runs up even further salary and pension debts on top of those he was bequeathed, instead of respecting the voters who elected him to office, he publicly attacks them in unprintable words and has raised his own thuggish militia to harass and violate them,\u201d Shehu said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Governor now claims the voters wish to be \u2018rescued by the PDP\u2019 and \u2018regret voting for Buhari.\u2019 The voters, of course, will not be asked to vote for the President again because \u2013 as a leader \u2013 President Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, APC, respect term limits and the constitution, and will stand down next year at the end of his second democratically elected mandate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt seems unlikely, however, that any voter would seriously consider it possible to be \u2018rescued\u2019 by a party that would today, allow a politician such as Governor Ortom in its ranks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat is certain, however, is that Nigeria has had enough of failed politicians who blame others as a diversion for their inability to improve citizens\u2019 lives.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The presidency has called on governor of Benue state, Samuel Ortom not to blame President Muhammadu Buhari for the challenges experienced in the state.
