Information reaching the OsunReporters News confirmed that a former Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom and three others have been suspended by the Benue Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, over alleged anti-party activities.

According to reports, Ortom’s sack emanated from the meeting of the State Working Committee, SWC, of the PDP, in Makurdi.

This was contained in a statement on Monday by the Media Consultant of the PDP, Cornelius Hwande, explaining that Ortom was suspended for his choice of the Labour Party candidate in the 2023 election and his statement calling on Benue PDP to vote for APC in the 2027 Presidential election.

Suspended alongside Ortom include the state Deputy Chairman of PDP, Mr Isaac Mffor and state Publicity Secretary, Mr Bemgba Iortyom.

He added that the party’s Vice Chairman of Zone A, Azua Ashongo was also suspended for gross insubordination and indiscipline.


Hwande said the suspension of Mffor and Iortyom was because of their involvement in the snatching of Congress materials meant for the conduct of last Saturday’s ward congresses in Buruku and Ushongo local government areas respectively
