Former Benue State Governor, Gabriel Suswam, announced his intention to join APC.
Suswam, a two-term governor, said his decision reflected a readiness to work closely with President Bola Tinubu, Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, and Governor Hyacinth Alia to ensure Benue fully benefitted from federal programmes and opportunities.
Describing the defection as a shift from partisan rivalry to people-focused governance, Suswam stated that cooperation with the federal government was essential to tackling Benue’s key challenges, including insecurity, unemployment, and poor infrastructure.
A statement by his Personal Assistant, Emmanuel Hangeior, said Suswam’s decision underscored his belief that “the time has come for Benue leaders to close ranks and put the people first”.
Hangeior added, “Senator Suswam’s move reflects a new spirit of collaboration – one focused on unity, progress, and the prosperity of Benue State.”
