Convener of the Forum, Pastor Bassey James said; “As a former governor in Benue State, Akume has been instrumental to the emergence of all his successors since 2007. It is a fact the role he played in the emergence of Father Hyacinth Alia, as the governor of the state.”

He added; “The Benue governor is a clergy. Some of the things I have been reading about squabbles and friction in the state are not encouraging. I am a pastor as well. If you come into government, you look at issues that will promote love, unity and progress and not raising issues that are of no benefit to anybody.”

He stated further; “We don’t want anything that will give us setback. We want to move Nigeria, Benue and other states of the federation forward. Benue State today is in need of total change. Benue state needs a visionary leader that can build and bring back the agricultural revolution that the state is known for.”
