Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom has described the killing of his Senior Special Assistant on Security, retired Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG), Christopher Dega, as a big blow to his administration and the entire state.
Speaking to journalists on Wednesday at Benue Peoples House, Makurdi, Ortom said: “Retired AIG Dega served with me here and this is someone who has retired but is not tired and was very active.
“So for him to have been murdered in the manner they did, a retired AIG gunned down. This is very sad.”
While calling on security agencies to find killers of his aide, Ortom sympathized with the family, friends and former colleagues of the deceased and prayed God to grant him eternal rest.
