Be A Good Grandfather, Rescue Nigeria Now, Ortom Tells Buhari In Birthday Greeting

Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has congratulated President Muhammadu Buhari on the occasion of his 79th birthday and used the opportunity to remind him that Nigeria under him is collapsing with terrorists carving different spaces for themselves in the country.

In a statement felicitating with the president on his birthday, Governor Ortom said that he would not join the chorus of sycophants to tell him that he was on course saying that expectations after his election in 2015 have been seriously dashed.

The statement issued by Ortom’s Chief Press Secretary, Nathaniel Ikyur observed that “to some, the President is a father, to others, grandfather while yet to others, he is a great grandfather who should understand that Nigeria at the moment is collapsing due to the activities of terrorists who have continued to destroy the very foundation of the unity of this country.

While observing that the president may be inclined to the unity of the country, he, however, observed:

“Daily, people are slaughtered like animals either on their farms, at home or roasted to death while travelling from one destination to another with video clips showing the faces of the killers, yet no one has been arrested. The roads have become booby traps where the citizenry are scared to travel on, for the fear that they may be kidnapped for ransom or in some cases killed outrightly. It is an open secret that no one is safe in this country any longer.”

Ortom said he’s compelled to remind President Buhari of the  dangers the country is going through, peradventure he is not aware that Nigeria is collapsing during his time and gradually giving the sovereignty of the country into the hands of the murderous terrorists.

Governor Ortom saying that he loves Mr President begged him to use his 79th birthday, not as a member of a political party or any religious bias, but as a grandfather and a nationalist, to address the obvious imbalances in the nation now before he hands over power in 2023.

While encouraging the president not to pay heed to sycophants, he urged “the President not to listen to sycophants who may not be telling him the truth that all is well. All is not well with Nigeria right now Mr President. You must therefore take urgent steps now to pull the nation back from the precipice before it is too late.”

The Governor urged every citizen not to sit on the fence but join hands with Governments at all levels as patriots to assist in redeeming the nation from the hands of bloodthirsty terrorists so that Nigeria can gradually move into political stability and economic prosperity for all.
