Meanwhile, the Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, has says that the National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party is acting in contempt of a subsisting Court Order by referring him to the disciplinary committee of the party for alleged anti-party activities. Governor Ortom belives it ia disdainful of the party’s leadership to disregard the court order which barred the party or any organ of the party from issuing any disciplinary measure against him.
The governor, while reacting to the development in a statement through his Chief Press Secretary, says the case is pending in court and there is an order of injunction restraining any organ of the party from carrying out any disciplinary action against the governor.
This case is adjourned to 18th April 2023 and so it is baffling to see such a statement coming from the national leadership of the party.
