Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom says he is committed to the security of lives and property of Benue people.
He gave the assurance on Sunday at the Catholic Youth Centre in Makurdi, during the dedication of Lutor Samuel Isho Adanyi, by the family of Chief Benjamin Adanyi, Majority Leader of the House of Assembly.
Ortom said the need for ranching, as being championed by his administration, had recorded progress, especially with prominent Nigerians condemning the killings by Fulani herdsmen.
He said God had heard the prayers of Benue people, and hoped that the “displaced persons would soon return to their homes to continue with their normal activities”.
The governor also said salary problems would soon become a thing of the past, as regular payments had begun since the beginning of the year.
He promised that money would be sourced and arrears cleared.
In his sermon, Rev. Celestine Tyowua urged Christians to humble themselves and trust in God, and they would never be disappointed.
