 BENUE APC CRISIS: I'M GOING NOWHERE - GOV. ALIA 11th April, 2025      Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia has disclosed he is not leaving the All Progressives Congress (APC) for another party, despite the ongoing crisis in the state’s APC. The governor made this clarification during a media chat yesterday at the Government House in Makurdi, the Benue State capital, saying that such insinuation is coming from mischief-makers. “I am not going anywhere, for the records,” he said, adding that those pushing that narrative do not wish him and the state well. “I am not stupid to follow the bandwagon of mischief makers to take the state down into the dungeon again. “I came into politics to restore Benue to its lost glory; otherwise, I would have remained a priest.

According to the governor, “After the official handover and Democracy Day, I will still be around for five months to establish atmosphere of cordiality with the incoming administration, before thinking of any other thing

Inalegwu said N42 billion was made to clear all the arrears owed workers and pensioners but unfortunately the governor did everything but could not access the money.

He said N20 billion was meant for rural infrastructure development.

He also disclosed that a medical practitioner, Doctor Etito Obediah Idiriakpo attached with the Federal Medical Centre Makurdi was kidnapped by yet to be identified gunmen in Makurdi.

as he quoted the governor as urging security agencies to ensure the release of Dr Etito unhurt.

He also disclosed that the state government will this Saturday honour one of its illustrious sons, Maj. Gideon Orkar by naming a 9.7-kilometre road after him, for his contributions to the development of the State by also recognising all the prophecies he made which has come to pass as a hero of the State.

Recall that Major Orkar was killed after a failed coup during the Gen. Ibrahim Babangida administration in 1990.
