Governor Samuel Ortom as the scourge of Miyetti Allah

 


Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State


If there is one Governor Miyetti Allah will wish dead, it is Samuel Ortom of Benue State. Sadly, under Nigerian

Federalism, Governor Ortom's security is in the hands not of Benue State but the All Progressive Congress led Federal Government.

It is has been reported that he escaped an assassination attempt in his farm.

The governor who is currently doing a second term as Governor first got into Office as a member of the All Progressives Congress.

For his second term, he is back to People's Democratic party. His stance in respect of open grazing of cattle is well documented.

He has been very vocal in condemning open grazing and the menace of herdsmen.

Should the governor be assassinated then it would have become very obvious that the Nigerian Government is a fulani Government through and through.

The immediate aftermath for the avoidance of doubt, will not be fear but the militarization of the entire land not of Benue State but the rest of the country.

The youths who have since lost faith in the elders would ignore political niceties and take matters into their hands.

Akin to thinking outside the box, and like what happens when making Omelette, eggs would be broken and surely the nation would never remain the same again.

There are skirmishes all around, killing a sitting Governor will just tip the scale so much that the centre will no longer hold. 

For now, the South West and South East are ill at ease with the centre. Any untoward move in Benue State may well give promoters of Biafra the fillip they need to actualize their desire for Benue State.

Those pulling the strings for Miyetti Allah should know that things are no longer the same. A stitch in time, they say, saves nine.
