Alia seized 23 vehicles allocated to him, court ordered their return — Ortom alleges

By GhanaSummary NewsroomNigeria

Former Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, has alleged that his successor, Governor Hyacinth Alia, seized 23 vehicles that had been allocated to him by the state government after he left office.

The former governor also accused the Alia administration of sidelining political stakeholders from the affairs of the state, alleging that no stakeholders’ meeting involving political parties had been held since the governor assumed office.

Ortom, who disclosed this on Tuesday during an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show, said he challenged the seizure in court and secured a judgment ordering the state government to return the vehicles and pay him N5 million in damages.
