The immediate past Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom has congratulated Senator George Akume over his appointment as the Secretary to the Government of the Federation by President Bola Tinubu.
Recall that Ortom in 2019 after Akume lost his bid to return to the senate boasted that he had retired Akume, his former leader from politics.
Akume who lost the 2019 election to one of his men in the Peoples Democratic Party, Senator Orke Jev, was later appointed a minister under former President, Major General (Retd.), Muhammadu Buhari’s regime.
