‘Your demand unconstitutional, no parallel government here,’ Benue replies governor-elect’s team

The Benue State Government on Wednesday described as an aberration the demand for handover notes by the transition committee put in place by the Governor-elect, Hyacinth Alia.

Alia’s team had accused the transition committee put in place by Governor Samuel Ortom of delaying the presentation of handover notes ahead of the May 29 inauguration of the incoming administration in Benue.

The group in a statement demanded among others, “comprehensive handover notes covering the activities of all Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), including the debt profile and Benue’s state of finance in the last eight years.
