Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, today forwarded a list of 13 commissioner nominees to the State House of Assembly for screening and confirmation as members of the state executive council.

Meanwhile prior to the submission of the list of nominees, the state chapter of the party was engulfed in serious crisis as several members of the party decried the imposition of cabinet members on the party structure by the state's party leader, Sen. George Akume, who is alleged to have nominated jobs fewer than 8 members of the 13 man executive council.
