The event was organised by Buruku Development Association in conjunction with Buruku Traditional Council held at Tombo Community Secondary School, Buruku LGA, Benue State.

He expressed delight for the organisation of the event, stating that such an annual event reunites the people of Buruku and beyond which is the recipe for development and fostering peace and unity against all odds.

Hon. Kwaghgba reinstated his commitment to the progress of Buruku where he is married. He commended the Executive Governor of Benue State, Rev. Fr. Dr. Hyacinth Iormem Alia for the appointments he gave in Buruku and the good work he is doing for the development of Benue State.

He gave cash donation in support of the association's projects they intend to execute and assured them of his support in the near future.

Agah Has The Concomitant Of Leadership To Represent Mata State Constituency

By Terfa Naswem 

As Mata State Constituency searches for a representative that has the concomitant of all-inclusive representation, the searchlights point at Hon.  Dr. Daniel Tordue Agah; a man whose penchant for progress and development is top-notch.

Mata State Constituency is seriously begging for attention as it has over the years suffered so much infrastructural deficits and the empowerment of constituents being neglected.

Just like Benjamin Rush (1745–1813) who was a foundational American leader, physician, and social reformer whose leadership philosophy was deeply rooted in Enlightenment rationalism, Christian benevolence, and civic republicanism. Dr. Agah follows his footsteps not only as a social reformer but also enlightenment rationalism, Christian benevolence, and civic republicanism. He believes that the people of Mata State Constituency need to be placed on the trajectory of development through these cardinal points which he has the concomitant to do them but needs to be elected to represent the people of Mata at the Benue State House of Assembly, BSHoA where he'll have the wherewithal for all-inclusive representation through his probity and prudence. Just like Rush, Agah's approach to leadership emphasized moral integrity, education, and the proactive, often aggressive, pursuit of public good, viewing representative leadership as a duty to improve society, reform institutions, and foster human potential.

Those from Mata State Constituency of Ushongo Local Government Area of Benue State who have not registered as members of All Progressives Congress (APC) should do so for them to be qualified to vote for him in the forthcoming direct primaries.

If they don't have voters cards too, they should go to the nearest INEC office and register to obtain theirs so that they will vote for Dr. Agah after he wins his primary election on the platform of APC.

Jir Extols Gov. Alia For Repositioning Benue

... Calls on supporters to get their voters' cards, APC e-registration membership cards

By Terfa Naswem 

Benue State Commissioner for Transportation, Power and Renewable Energy, Hon. Joseph Ter Jir extols the Executive Governor of Benue State, Rev. Fr. Dr. Hyacinth Iormem Alia for repositioning Benue State on the trajectory of unprecedented development.

He is extremely impressed with the tremendous impact Gov. Alia is making on the people of Benue State, stating that those who are hellbent on propelling activities that will impinge on the progressive roadmap of Gov. Alia for Benue State will never succeed.

It is incontrovertible that since 1999, Benue State has never witnessed this kind of development which hitherto was only in the illusions of Benue indigenes. Hon. Jir notes that Alia is not a neophyte in progressive leadership and has surmounted most of the impediments in his government which made the completed and ongoing projects possible.

In ensuring that Gov. Alia continues with his good work for Benue State, Hon. Jir appeals to supporters of Alia who don't have voters' cards to go to the nearest INEC office and register to obtain theirs so that they will be able to reelect Alia.

Since the new electoral law has made emphasis on direct primaries and consensus, expunging delegates participation, he urged supporters of Alia to register as All Progressives Congress (APC) members through e-registration which is expected to continue after the congresses are completed.

He said if they obtain their APC e-membership cards, they will be qualified to participate in the direct primaries to give Alia the go-ahead as the candidate of APC for his reelection including others.
