Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has stated that media attacks on his person and government will not deter him from advocating justice, equity and fairness for all Nigerians.

Ortom made the assertion yesterday while addressing journalists at the Makurdi Airport on his return from a visit to his Akwa Ibom State counterpart, Emmanuel Udom.

The governor, who vowed to deal with anyone that dares him for speaking against evil, blamed such attacks on persons who want to see the continuation of impunity and injustice in the country.

He said: “Separatist and secessionist agitations by Nigerians were fuelled by marginalisation of other parts of the country in key decisions and lopsided appointments among other perceived forms of impunity by the presidency.”
