While also appreciating those who assisted in putting off the fire, Governor Ortom stated that a committee comprising of the Executive Secretary, State Emergency Management Agency in collaboration with Otukpo council, among others would ascertain the actual victims and also map out modalities for disbursement of the funds.
He urged those who had resisted restructuring and expansion of the market with court cases to withdraw such suits and allow government to create access roads through the market and relocate traders where necessary.
The Governor expressed worry over the spate of insecurity in Benue South Senatorial district occasioned by kidnapping, banditry, herders attacks and other crimes, urging stakeholders to join hands to combat the menace.
