Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, has said the military governments experienced by Nigerians cannot even be compared to President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
The governor, while speaking with journalists in Makurdi, the State Capital on Monday, said that Nigerians were better off during the military regimes than Buhari’s current administration.
He noted that Nigeria is more divided along ethnic and religious lines under Buhari’s administration than all previous governments.
Ortom also accused the current Federal Government of deceiving Nigerians.
“I have been privileged to read the history of Nigeria and that of those who have been destroying us including the military.
“Usually, we say that the worst democratic government is better than the military government.
“That is what we used to say, but for the purpose of APC-led government, I want to say that the worst military government we have had in Nigeria is better than this particular government led by APC,” Ortom noted.
