Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom
Speaking while he received the executive members of the National
Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), Benue State Council at the
Benue People’s House on Tuesday, Governor Samuel Ortom, has said he is
proud to be a member of the union and would never be ashamed of
identifying with the union where he started life from.
The governor noted that as a member of the union, he would do his
best not to disappoint them and would do everything possible to take
Benue State to a greater height. He called on the union members to give
him maximum support in order to succeed.
He called on members of the NURTW to intensify farming activities,
stressing that farming pays more than any other business in Nigeria.
Governor Ortom said the problem of militants in the Niger Delta
region has reduced Nigeria’s oil production capacity from 2.3 million
barrels a day to less than one million and expressed the fear that it
might reduce to less than 800,000 barrels a day.
