Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, has narrated how he was blocked from meeting President Muhammadu Buhari for four years.<\/p>\n

Ortom said he had been blocked from gaining an audience with President Buhari for four years.<\/p>\n

Governor Ortom made stated this in an interview with Vanguard.<\/p>\n

Asked if it was not too much fighting the Federal Government and his (Ortom) party\u2019s, PDP presidential candidate, in an election year, he said there was no need for fear and no dilemma.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is nothing like having fear about winning election or not winning election. It does not really come in.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am doing the wish of my people, whatever you hear me speak and I have challenged them, I have consulted with them and I told them, \u2018if I am not doing your wish, draw my attention, I will go back\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis matter (security) that I have been branded a bad man by the presidency, if my people tell me that \u2018Ortom<\/a> this is too much please withdraw\u2019, I will go back and apologise to the President.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have not seen the President for four years, they have blocked me and I said fine, let me stay and do my work because I was not elected by presidency.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been denied a lot of things that would have come to Benue<\/a> state, nothing comes here.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose people who are against me and are working for APC, it is their shame because I expected that they didn\u2019t want me to have any access to the President.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow that they have him alone, what have they attracted to Benue state? Nothing.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen they are making appointments, Niger, Nasarawa, Kogi, Plateau and others, nothing comes to Benue.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut these are people from Benue here, who are living on crumbs and who have not performed and who have nothing to show when they were given power by the same Benue people they have not been able to impact on their lives.<\/p>\n

\u201cI challenge anyone to come out in all sectors of the economy in the state. I have projects that I have executed despite all the problems that I have.<\/p>\n

\u201cI sit among my colleagues who ask me, \u2018My brother, are you not afraid of your life?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cI said look, life belongs to God, the day God wants me to die, nobody will stop it. I cannot stop myself and it is only a fool that dies 20 times before his actual death.<\/p>\n

\u201cOtherwise a wise man should die once, when that time comes you cannot stop it and it happens.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo as far as I am concerned, I am not worried about the election. Look, being a senator for instance is not the issue but service. First things first.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe day I will stand before the judgment seat of God, God will ask me, \u2018What did you do when you were local government chairman? What did you do when you were secretary of PDP? What did you do when you were deputy chairman? What did you when you were national auditor? What did you do when you were minister? What did you do when you were governor?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd for me as a student of the Bible, the Bible teaches me to make use of the little I have because it depends on what you do with the little that have been committed into your hands. If you do well, you can be given more.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
