as no regrets for asking the military to take over Benue State, insisting that Samuel Ortom has lost control of the state.Wike said the wanton killings in the state was becoming unbearable, hence his call for declaration of state of emergency in the state.The governor had called on the Nigerian government to do the needful by declaring a state of emergency on the state so as to end the incessant killings.He reaffirmed his statement on Thursday when the Governing Council of the University of Port Harcourt, paid him a courtesy call at Government House, Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.He said, “Benue Governor has lost control. That is why there is an immediate need to declare a state of emergency for the restoration of security and protection of the people.“If you are from Benue State, I apologise. But when Rivers State had security challenges, Governor Ortom of Benue State was amongst the APC governors who plotted for the declaration of state of emergency in the state.“When the problem of insecurity started here in Rivers State, instead of joining hands to proffer solutions, they politicised it. Unless all those at the fore front of the plot against the state repent, this insecurity will visit them one after the other.”Wike said as a result of the politicisation of security by APC governors , insecurity had been exported to several parts of the country
