The All Progressives Congress (APC), Benue State chapter, has pledged to stand behind both Governor Hyacinth Alia and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to achieve their reelection come 2027.

The Chairman of APC in Benue, Chief Benjamin Omale, stated this after the Tiavnyam Development Foundation (TDF) on Sunday organised an award and Thanksgiving Mass in honour of the state Governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, at St. Veronica’s Parish, Agidi, Akpagher-Mbatiav.

The event was to celebrate Governor Alia’s achievements as Governor of the State in the last two years.

Omale, who spoke to newsmen, lauded TDF for honouring Governor Alia with an excellence award, describing it as a recognition of his efforts in delivering dividends of democracy to the people.

He said, “It also indicates that the people of the State are happy with the administration of the Governor. The award has also shown that the governor is enjoying massive support and love from the people of the State.”

Omale congratulated Governor Alia and pledged the party’s continued support for his administration and the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

He appreciated TDF for the honour done to the Governor, urging them to continue to support him to achieve his reelection, saying it’s not over until it’s over.

Omale further promised that the Benue APC would support any group, person or community that identifies with the administration of Governor Hyacinth Alia and supports the reelection of both Governor Hyacinth Alia and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

He stated that the APC administration led by Fr. Alia will continue to deliver dividends of democracy to the people of the state by building good roads, providing quality education, health care, agriculture, among others.
