Benue govt seeks new election
I think there may be some confusion here. Benue State Government has not sought a new election. Benue State is one of the 36 states in Nigeria, and it has a democratically elected government led by Governor Samuel Ortom.
However, I can try to provide some context. In Nigeria, elections are held every four years to elect new leaders at the federal, state, and local government levels. The last governorship election in Benue State was held in 2015, and Governor Samuel Ortom was elected to a four-year term.
If there are any plans for a new election in Benue State, it would likely be due to the expiration of the current governor's term or a vacancy in the office. In such cases, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) would be responsible for conducting the election.
If you have any specific information or sources suggesting that the Benue State Government has sought a new election, I would be happy to help clarify the situation.
