In a message that will find favour among southeasterners, Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue state has insisted that Igbo people have the potential to rule Nigeria if given the opportunity.
According to im, the Igbo people have the capacity to add value to the economy of the country if given the chance.
Ortom made this known when members of the Igbo PDP Forum paid him a courtesy visit at the government house, Makurdi.

“The Igbo are accommodating and hard working. They are a group that can live with other ethnic groups and not like those that are killing my people and they want me to keep quiet. I will never keep quiet concerning incessant attacks on my people by herdsmen until the authorities do the right thing. I will continue to speak against injustice.”
In another report, Ortom insisted that he cannot6 be threatened over his senatorial ticket.
He said:
“No one can threaten my senatorial ticket. A man can get nothing except it is given to him by God, I want to sincerely commend the Igbos in Benue and across the states for the strategy to empower the younger generation which is second to none.”
