Benue PDP accuses Gov Alia of favouring kinsmen in MDAs appointments

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Benue State on Saturday accused Governor Hyacinth Alia of appointing his kinsmen into Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) in the state.

In a statement issued by its Publicity Secretary in the state, Bemgba Iortyom, the party alleged that the governor was giving preference to his Kunav kinsmen from Vandeikya local government area of the state in his appointments in total disregard for the federal character principle.

The PDP statement followed the appointment of Mr. Raymond Asemakaha as the new Managing Director of the Benue Investment and Property Company (BIPC).
