The opposition Peoples Democratic Party in Benue State and its governorship candidate, Michael Aondoakaa, have advised Governor Hyacinth Alia to sit up and provide effective leadership and security for the people he superintendents over.
In separate statements issued on Wednesday reacting to the killing of 15 people at Efeyi Ugboju in Otukpo LGA of the state on Tuesday, they decried the deafening silence of the Alia administration to the incessant killings of innocent people across the state.
In his statement, the state PDP publicity secretary, Bright Antyo, lamented that communities were repeatedly attacked while government’s responses remained reactive, weak and largely ineffective.
“Leadership is not by words but by decisive action, empathy and the ability to inspire confidence in times of crisis,” he said.
Aondoakaa, on his part, accused the Alia administration of criminalising criticisms to escape responsibility for his government’s failure on security.
