Governor of the Year Award: Tinubu/Alia Campaign Council congratulates Gov Alia

The Benue State Tinubu/Alia Campaign Council has congratulated Governor Hyacinth Alia on his recent award as The Sun Newspaper's Governor of the Year 2026, recognizing his commitment to good governance, institutional reforms, and the transformation of Benue State. The award, presented at the 24th edition of The Sun Awards in Lagos on November 13, 2026, highlights the significant achievements of Alia's administration, including the employment of 9,700 primary school teachers, the establishment of the Benue State University of Agriculture, Science and Technology, and the revival of abandoned industries.

Governor Asema, the Director General of the campaign council, emphasized that the recognition reflects the tangible accomplishments of the Alia administration, which must be appreciated against the backdrop of the challenges inherited by the governor, such as salary arrears, abandoned projects, and deteriorating public infrastructure.

The council's endorsement of Alia's leadership further bolsters the case for his re-election in 2027, as it underscores the progress made and the continued support of the people of Benue.
