Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris is a "bad influence on
President Muhammadu Buhari, having turned himself to the mouthpiece
and defender of the herdsmen."
Ortom made the remark while receiving his counterpart from Ekiti
State, Ayodele Fayose in Makurdi on Thursday.
He insisted that the police boss be fired, over his inability to
handle the crisis between herdsmen and farmers.
The governor also maintained that restructuring of the country remains
the panacea to this present "maladministration and open bias of the
security agencies."
Speaking further, Ortom said all cattle farmers in the state must
embrace cattle ranching, stressing that "No retreat, no surrender on
the total implementation of the State anti-grazing law."
The governor chided the Police and the Minister of Defense for
allowing called strangers to display arms openly and kill people.
He insisted the relocation of Idris was a ruse, saying, "the IGP came
just once and ran back to Abuja insulting me and dancing on the graves
of the innocent people of Benue State."
The governor said the security agencies have "allowed herdsmen to take
over the business of kidnapping and killings and were being protected
by the IGP."
