The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Benue State has promised to retire the Minister of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs, Senator George

This promise was made through a statement on Friday, by Bemgba Iortyom, the State Publicity Secretary of PDP, in response to utterances made by Akume and APC stakeholders at a retreat for the party’s governorship aspirants that they will issue red cards to the PDP at the coming polls.

“We recall that Akume is in love with red cards and had in 2018 flashed one at Governor Samuel Ortom while they were together in APC, but the attendant result was disastrous as the governor left the party and went back home to PDP from where he issued a ‘Redder Card’ to Akume retiring him from elective political office.

“PDP assures that this time too the consequences will be the same, only more disastrous as our great party in 2023 will largely be going into the APC camp to help bury casualties from the bloody civil war which has commenced there over the party’s governorship ticket.
