Benue Governor Hyacinth Alia has disclaimed any knowledge of an All Progressives Congress, APC, State Executive Committee, SEC, meeting that was reportedly announced by former party chairman Mr. Austin Agada.
Recent reports suggested that a SEC meeting of the Benue APC was scheduled for Thursday. Governor Alia has canceled the alleged meeting and cautioned that any attempts to hold unauthorized gatherings that might disturb the peace of the state would face repercussions.
He said: “The last time I checked, I am still the APC leader in the state. No APC meeting can be summoned without my knowledge.
“Not just that, as the Chief Security Officer in the state, I should know when a legitimate gathering is supposed to hold.
“Nigeria is not a lawless state and so is Benue state”.
“Those who think they can undermine the authority of the state must know this and know peace.”
