Ortom names road to Ayu’s house after Wike
Samuel Ortom, governor of Benue, has named a road in the state after his Rivers counterpart, Nyesom Wike.
The 2.1km township road named after Wike is among the projects inagurated on Monday after the flag-off ceremony of the 2023 campaign in the state.
Ortom, who will complete his tenure as governor next year, had won the PDP ticket to contest the Benue north-west senatorial district election in 2023.
Wike, Seyi Makinde of Oyo, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia, and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu were governors who were present with Ortom at the campaign flag-off.
The road also leads to the residence of Iyorchia Ayu, national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The five governors, with Wike as the arrowhead, have been demanding the resignation of Ayu as national chairman.
They have boycotted the PDP presidential campaign following Ayu’s refusal to resign his position.
