#NigeriaDecides: Ortom votes Obi, displays ballot paper

Samuel Ortom

Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom, has displayed his ballot paper after voting for Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP).

Ortom, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), had earlier endorsed Obi against Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the PDP.

He is also part of a five-member group of PDP governors at loggerheads with the national leadership of the party.

The governor voted for Obi at his polling unit in Tse-Ortom, Mzondu ward, Guma LGA of the state on Saturday.

Ortom, who is contesting for Benue north-west senatorial seat, had earlier said he was ready to sacrifice his senatorial bid for the victory of the LP candidate.
