Benue crisis: Onjeh slams opponents for attempting to hijack power, sabotage Alia govt

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the 2023 senatorial candidate in Benue South, Daniel Onjeh, has condemned attempts by political opponents to destabilize the state’s leadership and undermine Governor Hyacinth Alia’s administration.
Onjeh accused certain political figures of conspiring to hijack the political process and sabotage efforts aimed at restoring peace and development to Benue State.
Speaking with Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily, Onjeh described developments in the state as signs of a larger conspiracy aimed at sabotaging the Alia government.
He said, “These political opponents are not interested in the well-being of the people of Benue. They are only focused on their own ambitions and are willing to cause chaos to achieve them.”
“It is clear that they are trying to exploit the current crisis for personal gain, but this cannot and will not be tolerated. We cannot afford to let these selfish individuals derail the progress we’ve started under Governor Alia. We must stand together and work towards a better Benue.”
Onjeh called for an end to divisive rhetoric and actions amid the ongoing political tensions in the state.
“The time for politicking is over; what Benue needs now is peace and stability. We must rally behind Governor Alia’s leadership and support him in his efforts to restore peace, tackle insecurity, and bring development to the state.”
He urged all political stakeholders to prioritize the welfare of the people over personal interests, reminding them that ‘the people of Benue have suffered enough, and it’s time for all of us to work together for a brighter future.
