Chief Press Secretary to Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue State, Tersoo Kula, has challenged the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, to name the aide they alleged was responsible for blocking Obi from visiting Yelewata community in the state.
Kula also demanded that the party and its presidential flagbearer should provide evidence linking the aide to the alleged obstruction, saying the state government was ready to allow the police investigate the incident and bring anyone found responsible to book.
Speaking on The Morning Show, an Arise TV programme, on Wednesday, Kula insisted that the state government was initially unaware of the incident until pictures of the obstruction surfaced on the internet.
He said: “The incident was completely unknown to the government until we started seeing pictures of what was happening. But before you say, Jack, they addressed the press and accused the governor of blocking his way. Now, the governor has become an accused person.
