Gov. Samuel Ortom of Benue says his administration will soon overcome the challenges of non-payment workers’ salaries in the state, with the help of God.

Ortom expressed the hope when he met with the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, who was in Makurdi on Sunday for a programme.

The governor, who has owed about five months workers’ salaries, said that God would help his government to settle the backlog of the salaries.

Ortom stressed the need for the people to serve God and obey Him, saying that is the only way to live in plenty and prosperity.

Quoting from the Bible in Job 36: 11-12, the governor assured the people that God is the only source of prosperity, pointing out that God has a hand in his election because he was faithful to Him.

He, therefore, pledged that his tenure as governor would continue to focus on glorification of God and service to the people.
