Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue State has declared that Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, cannot decide his fate and that of Benue people in the 2027 governorship elections.
Alia said Benue people would vote him for second term based on his performance, pedigree and precedence.
The governor’s chief press secretary, Sir Tersoo Kula, stated this while reacting to the senator representing Benue North West senatorial District, Titus Zam’s remarks that the people of the state would wait for directions from Akume in 2027.
Alia maintained that the people would collectively decide his fate in 2027 and not Akume or any individual.
“What will determine direction for the 2027 general elections in Benue is purely performance and pedigree. Those who betrayed the people that voted them into power; those who failed woefully to deliver on their mandate; those who preferred to worship emperors than fulfil their covenant with the people will face judgment from the people.
“No emperor can decide any election for the people. Alia is diligently and meticulously keeping his covenant with the people, and the people are there, much aware of developments around them to pass their verdict” Alia’s spokesman stated.
