Governor Ortom Reveals PDP Governors Are Defecting To APC To Avoid Prosecution

Following the massive defection of governors and lawmakers to
the All Progressive Congress (APC), the Governor of Benue State,
Samuel Ortom has alleged that the PDP governors are defecting to
APC to avoid prosecution from the Federal Government after
mismanaging public trust and resources.

Governor Ortom who made this assertion on Thursday said that
some governors who have mismanaged themselves and public property
are afraid because the Federal Government is using that to
prosecute them.

Speaking further, Ortom also revealed that he was approached and
he told them he had no skeleton in his cupboard.

He said, ”I have no issue with those defecting here and there
but let those people come clean because you heard the former
National Chairman of APC say that when you defect to APC, you will
become a saint; even if you are a devil, you will become a
saint.

“And so people who have mismanaged themselves and mismanaged
public property are afraid. And that’s the instrument that the
Federal Government is using on our people.”

”They came to me and I said no, I have no skeleton. Let them
bring it out. If you don’t do well, I will take you to court and we
will dig it out there.”
