APC Godfathers Did Not Allow me Pay Salaries – Gov. Ortom

Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State said he has had the capacity to pay rates as at when due since he cleared out the All Progressives Congress and separated himself from back up parents. 


Ortom who absconded from APC to PDP in July said he is currently a liberated person, no longer under the direct of adoptive parents in Benue. 

As indicated by Sahara Reporters, the representative made this know amid the swearing-in function of nine new chiefs who supplanted those sacked in August. 

"There is no godfatherism again in Benue under my supervision. That is the reason you can see that since I isolates myself from back up parent, even compensation I have possessed the capacity to pay as at when due. I'm looking for different courses in counterbalancing the rest of the unpaid debts of pay rates. 

"Since I left APC, I have been paying pay rates. In APC, adoptive parents won't permit me yet now I'm a liberated person," he said.
