For refusing to pay them their five months salaries, Benue State civil servants have vowed to ‘disgrace’ the outgoing governor, Gabriel Suswam on Friday.
In fact, feelers reaching DAILY POST from Makurdi, the Benue State capital have it that the enraged civil servants have conclude plans to give Suswam a farewell ‘blow’ when he will hand over to the incoming Governor, Dr Samuel Ortom on Friday.
According to sources, their reason might not be unconnected with Suswam’s refusal to pay their salaries for months.
Insiders claimed that some Benue workers have concluded plans to storm IBB Square, the venue of the handover ceremony, with live pigs in mockery of Suswam.
DAILY POST recalls that in September 2009, Suswam was in the news after he was allegedly caught with 47 billion naira in the US and when asked what he was doing with that kind of amount, he said he wanted to buy pigs for the state.
Speaking with newsmen on Thursday, a visibly angry civil servant, who gave his name as Adole, said he will not miss anything about the outgoing governor.
“Did you say miss? As far as we are concerned, nobody will miss Suswam. It is indeed farewell to sadness and poverty,” he said.
