Ortom in statement on Tuesday, issued through his Special Adviser, Media and Publicity, Terver Akase, said the report was false and mischievous, adding that its interment was to embarrass the five governors who had chosen “the path of justice, fairness and equity.” The statement partly read, “We read a fictitious, online report which claimed that the Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, and his colleagues in the G-5 have resolved to work for the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, to win the 2023 elections.
“Manufacturers of the said report were apparently on a desperate mission to score a cheap political point. The report could not mention the place and date of the said meeting of G-5 Governors. The writers only sought to take advantage of the crisis within the PDP for their selfish purposes. Governor Ortom and other members of the G-5 have not endorsed the said presidential candidate.
