Benue State Governor, Hyacinth Alia, has called on residents to remain patient as the government’s policies take time to yield positive results.
Speaking during a live broadcast in Makurdi in commemoration of Nigeria’s 64th Independence Day, Alia said his administration is on course to build a Benue that is peaceful, prosperous, and one that serves as a model of good governance in Nigeria.
He said his government has made strides in areas such as poverty reduction, food security, quality education, and infrastructural development.
“As your governor, I am committed to your welfare and urge each of you, both in Benue and across Nigeria, to continue supporting the policies and programmes of the government,” he said.

“These initiatives are designed to improve our collective welfare, though their impact may take time to fully manifest. Progress often requires patience, understanding, and the cooperation of every citizen.
“I call on you to renew your hope in this government, as we are committed to the progress of our state.”
He added that he is committed to ensuring that workers and pensioners are paid on time.
