One of the property belonging to the immediate past Governor Samuel Ortom has been stormed by Benue state government officials.
Specifically, the asset recovery committee set up by the Benue state Governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, stormed one of Ortom’s properties and carted away exotic cars.
Governor Alia, in June, set up a committee to ascertain all government assets, including lands, vehicles, houses, furniture and other machinery, to recover them.
Daily Sun newspaper reports that Hingah Biem heads the committee.
While performing their duties, the committee stormed the ex-Governor’s automobile workshop along Makurdi/Otukpo road, where they took away the vehicles.
The committee sent towing truck to cart away the vehicles after failed attempts to drive them away.
