Ortom to Akume: Prepare to explain all your allegations in court
Meanwhile, Ortom had revealed that he would institute a lawsuit against Senator George Akume, the minister of special duties and intergovernmental affairs.
Ortom said the court case will be instituted against the former governor of the state for allegedly peddling false information about him and his administration. Terver Akase, the spokesman of Ortom, confirmed the development.
Speaking recently, Governor Ortom said:
“The allegations by the minister in the said press conference were cheap lies and blackmail. Let him explain all the allegations at the court.”

Ngbede said:
“The major demand of Senator Akume at the Abuja outing at which he sold his soul to the devil is a declaration of a state of emergency in Benue state.”
