Open Letter: Benue Constituents Warn Gov. Alia Against Imposing Otukpo/Ohimini Candidate

Your Excellency, you were elected by the people of Otukpo/Ohimini to serve their interests—not to be a conduit for Abuja’s power brokers. They stood under the sun to vote for you because you promised change. Now they fear you will hand their mandate to a candidate pushed by Vice President Shettima, Hon. Faleke, or the First Lady. If you yield to that pressure, you signal that our votes can be auctioned in Abuja. The anger in our youth, the frustration of our women, and the silence of our elders already speak. Imposing a candidate will cost you more than party loyalty—it will be seen as betrayal. You campaigned in a cassock on hope, truth, and justice. This is your moment to live those values. Let Otukpo/Ohimini choose its own representative in a free, fair process. Stand with the people now, or face their judgement at the ballot box.
