Benue State Governor, Fr. Hyacinth Alia, has declared that political blackmail from his opponents will not distract him from the ongoing transformation efforts in the state, affirming his unwavering focus on delivering his mandate.
In a statement released on Saturday by his Chief Press Secretary, Tersoo Kula, Governor Alia was responding to criticism from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) regarding the N100 billion loan recently approved by the State House of Assembly.
Alia reiterated that his administration remains firmly committed to transparent governance, infrastructural development, and improving the welfare of the people of Benue State.
He insisted that the loan will not be misused but invested in projects that directly improve lives, enhance productivity, and restore Benue’s pride as the Food Basket of the Nation.
“Contrary to the PDP propaganda, Benue’s debt profile remains within sustainable limits, and every kobo of the ₦100 billion facility will be tied to verifiable and people-oriented Projects”.
He pointed out that the House of Assembly’s unanimous approval reflects an understanding of the critical infrastructural deficit inherited and confidence in his capacity to deliver.
Gov Alia urged the PDP to set aside bitterness and face the reality that Benue is now on a path of responsible governance
