Insecurity : I Stand By My AK-47 Carrying Story – Gov Ortom
1 min readThe Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom, has insisted on his advice that well-meaning citizens should be given gun licenses in order to curb the level of insecurity in the country.
It would be recalled that the Governor had suggested that that gun licenses should be upgraded across the country as a result of level of insecurity in the country.
Speaking to Newsmen in Abuja, on Friday, the Benue State Governor insisted that his suggestion was made in good faith and that those trying to twist his comment, and accusing that he was calling for disorder should rather question herdsmen and bandits who carry arms across the country.
“I’m asking for an upgrade of the existing policy of gun licensing.
“Terrorists will caution themselves when they see that people are armed against them.
“We must as Nigerians find ways to stop these people.
”When the Fulani Jihadists came, they said they came to take over Nigeria. They came with an agenda. They came to impose religion, but people should be allowed to practise their religion in this country.
