The Peoples Democratic Party in Benue State has applauded ex-governor Samuel Ortom, for voluntarily submitting himself to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, on Tuesday.

“So, in this case, he is being investigated for the eight years of his administration, and he has to be diligent in whatever he writes with the guidance of his lawyer. So that when he gets to court, he will not be contradicting himself.”The governor reemerged from the EFCC premises at about 8pm and drove away.

The party said, “The former governor’s action also depicts him as a man of his words as it fulfills promises he made while in office that at the end of his tenure, he will be willing to give an open account of all that he did in execution of the mandate vested in him as governor by the Benue electorate.
