Benue State Governor, Rev. Father Hyacinth Alia, on Friday, listed properties to recover from the immediate past governor, Samuel Ortom, and members of his administration.

While inaugurating the committee yesterday, the governor charged the members and the chairman to recover all assets belonging to the state government that had been illegally taken away by the immediate past administration of Ortom.

He said, “It’s not to victimise or witch hunt anybody, but it’s the right thing to do to account for all government assets.” While stating that he had been receiving allegations of conversion, abuse of and outright stealing of government property, the governor said, “It is appropriate that the committee also determine all functions of government property and assets done between March 1 and May 29, 2023, by various government MDAs without due process.

He insisted that the constitution of the committees became necessary due to the large number of cars that were seen with immediate past government officials but are nowhere to be found. The chairman of the committee, Hinga Biem, promised not to disappoint the government and the people of the state in the discharge of their duty.All rights reserved.
