Barring any unforeseen circumstance, a young man identified as Akaa James, may go the way of all mortals if the final result of the just-concluded guber election in Benue State goes in favour of the Samuel Ortom of the PDP.

CEOAfrica gathered that James vowed to commit suicide if Governor Ortom, who he described as ‘Kanshio’ emerged inner.

“Mark my words. Keep a date. I will hang myself if God Samuel Ortom aka Kansio emerge governor for a second time (sic),” he had written on his Facebook wall.

However, as at 11:am on Monday, Ortom seems to be leading comfortably with over 82,000 vote-margin and with just a local government area left.

Interestingly, another Kamo Emmanuel Kano vowed to walk Unclad on the streets of Benue if the result favours PDP’s Ortom.

“I will be waking Unclad around Benue with my joystick in my hand if Ortom becomes Governor for second term,” he also promised in a post on his Facebook wall.
