 Benue Governor Suspends Aide Over Sextortion and Blackmail Allegations


Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia has indefinitely suspended his Special Adviser on Documentation, Research, and Planning, Mkor Aondona, following the aide’s arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on allegations of sextortion, cyberbullying, and blackmail. The suspension, announced on Sunday via a statement by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Tersoo Kula, takes immediate effect pending the outcome of the EFCC’s investigation.


Governor Alia described the allegations as “deeply troubling” and emphasized that his administration would not shield any official involved in criminal or unethical conduct. “This administration was elected to serve with integrity and discipline,” the statement read. “Any official involved in acts capable of tarnishing the image of government or eroding public trust will be held accountable.”


Reaffirming his commitment to transparency and accountability, Alia stressed that public servants must uphold the highest ethical standards. He also pledged to protect the rights and dignity of all citizens, particularly women and vulnerable groups, and assured continued cooperation with law enforcement to ensure justice. The suspended aide has been directed to fully cooperate with the EFCC and face the legal process without interference from the state government.
