An Unpatriotic Crusade: Shame on Tiv Sons Calling for the Removal of Senator George Akume as SGF

By Aviashima Toom It is deeply disappointing and unfortunate that some Tiv sons, blinded by personal ambition and envy, have joined the misguided campaign calling for the removal of Senator George Akume, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF).
