In a high-profile gathering today in Kaduna, the Governor of Benue State, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Iormem Alia, stood out among his peers during a courtesy visit by members of the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF) to former President Muhammadu Buhari.
The visit, which drew governors elected under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), was aimed at showing solidarity and paying respect to the former Commander-in-Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces, who led the nation from 2015 to 2023.
Governor Alia, known for his calm but firm leadership style, was prominently featured during the meeting, engaging in key discussions that touched on national unity, security, and the development agenda of the APC-led states.
Sources at the event described the Benue Governor as "a rising star" within the Forum, noting his strong presence and growing influence in the party’s national affairs.
His participation further signals his alignment with the vision of the PGF and his commitment to pushing forward a progressive agenda for the people of Benue and Nigeria at large.
The visit also served as an opportunity for the former President to share words of encouragement and wisdom with the governors, urging them to remain steadfast in their service to the nation and uphold the values of good governance.
