The Benue State Government has explained reasons behind Governor Samule Ortom's demand for N100 billion with an apology from President Muhammadu Buhari.

Recall that following President Buhari’s approval of N6.25 billion for ranching in Katsina State and the release of N5 billion on Thursday, Governor Ortom had insisted that the Federal Government should apologize to him and extend the same gesture to Benue State by releasing N100 billion to Benue State for the establishment of ranches.

In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Terver Akase, the state government explained that despite the Federal Government’s insistence on creating cattle routes for open grazing, the state had stood for ranching. The statement reads, “There is a difference between a ranch and a grazing area. The latter is open grazing while the former restricts livestock within a fenced area.
