It shows how much he and others in that league have misled the government and Nigerian people in the last inglorious eight years,\u201d the statement reads.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is equally a known fact that President Buhari has failed woefully in securing Nigeria, and Benue state in particular.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is on record that Governor Samuel Ortom has repeatedly pleaded with the Buhari government to intervene in the incessant invasion of Benue State by Fulani militias. The President sadly chooses to endorse the invasion and merely asks our people to learn to accommodate their neighbours who derive pleasure in killing and dispossessing them of their ancestral lands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ortom described the remark by the presidency as \u201can insult\u201d to the people of the state who have either been killed or abused by suspected gunmen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Presidency has shown in this recent public statement that they have placed cows above human lives and made the animals to urinate on the graves of those they massacred in Benue and elsewhere across the country. If not, they wouldn\u2019t have gone to town to mock the slain in their graves,\u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is an insult on Benue people including those killed and butchered children, the maimed, raped and abused women and the over two million people living under squalid conditions in Nigeria\u2019s largest Internally Displaced Camps in the state. The Presidency\u2019s statement is a reckless stab by agents of genocide against the Benue people by blaming the victims.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2018FG AGAINST ME OVER ANTI-GRAZING LAW\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The governor also claimed that the Buhari-led administration has been against him since he banned open grazing in the state in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBenue people are well aware that Governor Ortom has been a target of the Buhari presidency since 2017 when he boldly signed a law banning open grazing of livestock in the state,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Governor has been subjected to many coordinated media attacks, probes, freezing of state accounts and other punitive measures to frustrate and cripple his administration. While other states were given infrastructural loans, Benue under Governor Ortom was denied access to the funds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe same thing happened when the Benue State Government met all requirements to secure N42 billion to clear the backlog of salaries, pensions and gratuity.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samuel Ortom, governor of Benue, says the presidency and the federal government has not done anything to address the the killings in the state.
