Elders from Otukpo and Ohimini Local Government Areas of Benue State have passed a vote of confidence in President Bola Tinubu and Governor Hyacinth Alia for their leadership of the country, state and the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The elders, during a New Year visit to the Benue State APC Caretaker Committee Chairman, Chief Benjamin Omale, expressed solidarity and support for the two leaders urging them to keep up the members to make the state and Nigeria great.
The elders and stakeholders of the Otukpo/Ohimini Federal Constituency also also passed a vote of confidence on the National and State Chairmen of APC, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda and Benjamin Omale, appreciating them for their commitment to strengthening the party at all levels.
The delegation, comprising elders, women, youths, thanked Governor Alia for his generosity and inclusive governance toward the Otukpo/Ohimini zone.
They noted that the Governor’s love for the zone is evident in the appointment of the Deputy Governor, the allocation of two key ministries, Finance and Health, as well as the position of APC State Chairman, all of which are occupied by sons of the Otukpo/Ohimini axis.
Based on these considerations, the elders and stakeholders unanimously declared their readiness to mobilize total support to ensure victory for the APC and Governor Alia in the 2027 elections.
They acknowledged Chief Omale for his steadfast leadership and commitment to strengthening the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Benue State.

Speakers during the visit extolled the progress of the APC under the current leadership and praised the Governor’s leadership qualities.
The group also appreciated the Governor for ensuring a peaceful and enjoyable Christmas celebration, highlighting the improved security situation across the state during the festive season.
Chief Benjamin Omale thanked the delegation for their support and urged them to continue praying for leaders at all levels.
He encouraged active participation in the ongoing APC e-registration exercise and the continuous INEC voter registration, emphasizing the need for unity and commitment ahead of 2027.
He reaffirmed the party’s commitment to justice, equity, fairness, and inclusive governance, assuring that the APC will continue to carry the people along in all its programs
