Prof. Kpamor Orkar, the Caretaker Deputy Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Benue State, has said an Idoma indigene should be considered for the governorship position in the state in 2023.
Orkar told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday that he does not believe that only Tiv people should continue to produce governors of the state without considering the minority tribes.
NAN also reports that since the creation of Benue in 1976, only Tiv people have been elected governor, while Idoma and Igede people occupy the deputy governor’s position.
He stressed that Benue people need to consider an Idoma person for the position of governor in 2023.
