The elders, numbering about a 100 said that they purchased the for for suswam on the goodwill of the 7 local governments of the senatorial district.
Azota Ihindan who led the elders presented the forms to the governor and said that he has all that is required to to lead the senatorial district and that the decision was collectively made by the people of the zone.
A former national chairman of PDP, Dr Gemade is currently the senator representing Benue North East in the senate but his re-election has now come under threat with this development.
