APC HAS FAILED, PDP SHOULD TAKE BACK

POWER IN BENUE- Young Alhaji.

Political gladiator and pillar of the opposition in Benue State, Alh. Usman Abubakar Maishanu, aka Young Alhaji, has expressed a strong desire to see the People's Democratic Party (PDP) take back power in the state at all subsequent elections. Young Alhaji made those remarks when he received members of the PDP State Working Committee led by State Chairman, John Ngbede, at his Otukpo residence this morning. The Accord Party leader in the state carpeted the All Progressives Congress (APC)- led government in the state of having failed woefully, describing the state governor, Samuel Ortom as the most incompetent ever in the history of the state. He pointed to the government's inability to pay salaries, administer the N28.5 billion bailout, as well as inability to execute any meaningful project in the state despite collecting close to N60 billion in loans and over N100 billion in federal allocations and internally generated revenues. The former senatorial contender in the Benue-South Senatorial District particularly expressed satisfaction in what he described as the new found momentum and organisational efficiency of the PDP under the leadership of John Ngbede, expressing optimism that the opposition party will floor the ruling APC at any electoral contest. In his remarks earlier, State Chairman of the PDP, John Ngbede, commended Young Alhaji for having remained consistent in his political philosophy and having upheld the highest ideals in defence of the interests of the ordinary people and the common good of society. Young Alhaji who led an efficient and effective alliance of opposition parties to successfully deliver victory for former Senate President, David Mark, of the PDP in the February 20th Senatorial re-run election this year in Benue- South Senatorial District, said he is open to more alliances with the main opposition party in the interest of Benue people.
