The people of Guma local government area thronged the hometown of the incumbent governor in their numbers to show solidarity with the APC Candidate.
Fr. Alia who is the Governorship Candidate of the opposition APC in the state received heroic welcome against all odds as youth groups, women, the displaced and even the aged sang songs of solidarity showcasing their love for the priest of God whom many described as the hope of a common man and a bridge of salvation for Benue people.
While addressing the people, Fr. Alia appreciated them for the warm welcome accorded him and promised to take the people out of the dungeon of hardships and misery.
He said he was very conversant with what goes on in the area and understood the predicaments of the people, promising to end insecurity, entrench peace in Benue State and reunite all those who have been displaced with their ancestral homes.
The priest of God also assured the people that his administration will create jobs and give juicy employment to the large number of Benue youth who are hitherto jobless and are so prone to indulging in acts capable of truncating peace in the society.
