What do you have to say about your party

Upon all the bailouts,'Ortomatic' Benue is still owing 7 months salary?
Something is definitely wrong with the state administration.

Benue and kogi state are always unfortunate in choosing a governor.

Chai waiting we no go see for 9ja. Food basket of the nation wey no dey get luck elect better person for governor chai strike has finally fallen on them.

way to go.... workers

Didn't pay workers' salary but shouting upandan for cargo airport..Come on, there are more pressuring needs in the state than that

Anyway, he is an ORTHOMATIC FAILURE

Last week was warning strike. This one is indefinite.

Ortom is a complete fool

I used to think that Abia state was d worst in terms of bad leaders until I came to Benue. This ppl have had daft leaders. D worst is that I'm already seeing billboards of some idiats telling the modafvcker to recontest in 2019

I don't even know between Ortom of Benue and Bello of Kogi who is more useless?

That stupid governor with his engine oil face. They should closer down the state.

I lost pity for Benue Civil Servants since the time those ones in my PPA then while I was serving in that state were so engrossed in their abject poverty and still hailing their governor. Then I had to give Aregberascal a little Kudos for at least Paying half compare to ortom that is not paying anything.

#TheirMumuJustDeyDo

To their detriment.

Strike

Maybe we should even run a mini poll for the "dumbest governor" in Nigeria, or what do you think?

Useless governors

Even with Gov.Ortom so called 50billion aid to victims of the flood disaster EFCC should arrest this man after he complete his tenure.
