Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has demanded that President Muhammadu Buhari resign immediately and give over power to his Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.
At a press conference in Makurdi, the capital of Benue State, the Governor stated that Buhari had failed to deliver on all of his election pledges.
Ortom acknowledged that making such a strong appeal for the presidency could lead to personal attacks and vendettas against him, but insisted that the truth must be communicated.
According to him, "I want to call on President Muhammadu Buhari to accept the fact that he has failed this country and I want to advise him to honourably resign as president of Nigeria," Ortom said.
"Yes, he can resign and hand over to his deputy to handle the affairs of this country. Otherwise, this country will be going down," he said.
"They can insult me, send EFCC to come after me. If they come here, I will take you (EFCC) to court again, and by the grace of God, defeat you like I defeated you before," he said.
