Buhari govt executed evil agenda in Nigeria – Ortom
The immediate past governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom, on Monday accused the late former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration of pursuing what he described as an “evil agenda” in Nigeria.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Ortom revealed that he had faced considerable frustration during Buhari’s tenure.
As a serving governor during Buhari’s administration, Ortom alleged that policies such as the cattle colony initiative, the Ruga settlement scheme, and the livestock development programme were deceptive in nature.
Asked whether he had been frustrated under Buhari, Ortom replied: “Of course, I’ve said it. It wasn’t hidden and I have raised the alarm several times.
“They brought different programmes to execute the evil agenda that the then-government had on Nigeria.
“Be it Ruga, be it cattle colony, be it livestock development programme, all those things were just a camouflage to deceive Nigerians and I raised an alarm.
“Each time they brought it, I stood against it and it’s unfortunate they never listened.”
