A heated war of words has erupted over allegations of lackluster performance leveled against the Benue State governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, by the Jemgbagh Development Association (JEMDA). The controversy centers on claims of political maneuvering and forced resignations within the state.
JEMDA, during a press conference in Makurdi, expressed dismay over the situation surrounding the immediate past Speaker of the Benue State House of Assembly, Aondoana Dajoh, who hails from the Jemgbagh extraction. The association alleges that Dajoh was forcibly removed from office, with his position subsequently handed over to Alfred Emberga of the MINDA extraction.
The group’s statement has sparked a strong reaction, with supporters of Governor Alia likely to counter the accusations in the coming days. The full details of the allegations and the governor’s response are expected to unfold as the story develops.
Stay tuned for updates as this political saga continues to unfold in Benue State.
