Akume Has No Say — Alia

Governor Hyacinth Alia has made it clear that the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, has no authority over his political future or that of the people of Benue ahead of the 2027 governorship elections.

Alia stated that his chances for a second term will be determined by his performance, credibility, and past achievements, expressing confidence that the electorate will assess him accordingly.

This statement was made through his Chief Press Secretary, Sir Tersoo Kula, in response to comments by Titus Zam, who suggested that Akume would influence the 2027 election outcome in the state.

The governor stressed that the decision lies solely with the people of Benue, not any individual political figure.

“What will determine the direction for the 2027 general elections in Benue is purely performance and pedigree,” Alia’s spokesperson stated.

He further added that those who betrayed their constituents and failed to deliver on their promises would face judgment from the people.

“No emperor can decide any election for the people. Alia is diligently fulfilling his covenant with the people, and they are well aware of the developments to make their decision,” he concluded.
