Daily Trust reports that the governor made the comments on Tuesday, January 4, 2017 when he visited the newly elected Tor Tiv, James Ayatse, in Makurdi.

Shettima who visited the Tor Tiv alongside his counterparts from Bauchi and Kano states, Mohammed Abubakar and Abdullahi Ganduje noted that Nigeria would have gone into extinction if President Muhammadu Buhari was not elected.

Shettima attributed Nigeria’s woes to “PDP's 16 years of bad governance.”

The Borno state governor while addressing a cross section of Benue people at the Government House in Makurdi emphasised oneness among northern Nigerians in order to foster peace.

He further dispelled insinuation that the forum’s visit to Benue was targeted at political calculation ahead of 2019, adding that they owed nobody apology for coming to rejoice with the Tiv nation.
