Ahead of the 2027 general elections, the Federal Commissioner in Charge of the Public Complaints Commission in Benue State, James Oche, has warned staff of the Commission to stay clear of partisan politics.He has said those found contravening this directive would be made to face the grave consequence of their actions.Oche stated this recently during the management meeting of the commission in Makurdi, when he briefed management on the outcome of commissioners’ latest plenary that took place in Abuja.In a statement made available to the press and signed by Orhemba Charles, the Commission’s Head of Information and Public Relations, Oche is said to have intimated that the plenary adopted the recommendation of an ad hoc committee that some units in the Commission should be upgraded and more directorates should be created to accommodate the astronomical increase in the number of cases brought to the Commission.Mr. Oche is quoted to have said, “staff of the commission should not be be affiliated with, influenced by, or found supporting any political party, candidate or faction. This, he stated “signifies neutrality, impartiality, and independence, given the fact that, the Commission is a justice umpire in the determination of cases brought to it against individuals, corporate bodies and even government agencies.”Oche said that it would be unethical for public servants, especially staff of the commission, to involve themselves in partisan politics without first resigning their appointments. Consequently, he directed that staff of the commission who might wish to be partisan, especially in the build-up to the 2027 general election, should first resign their appointments.Reacting to the directive, the Director of Investigation, Mr. Kpaakpa Terkura assured the Commissioner that there would be strict compliance and enforcement of the directive against erring staff and also cautioned staff to live up to expectations.Oche also appreciated the staff and management of the commission for the successful participation in, and coordination of the commission’s promotion examination that held recently.”,”author”:{“@type”:”Person”,”name”:”News Break”,”url”:”https://nggossips.com/author/newsbreak/”,”sameAs”:[“https://nggossips.com/”]},”articleSection”:[“Politics”],”image”:{“@type”:”ImageObject”,”url”:”https://nggossips.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Oche.jpeg”,”width”:2560,”height”:1709},”publisher”:{“@type”:”Organization”,”name”:””,”url”:”https://nggossips.com”,”logo”:{“@type”:”ImageObject”,”url”:””},”sameAs”:[“https://www.facebook.com/jegtheme/”,”https://twitter.com/jegtheme”,”https://plus.google.com/ Jegtheme”,”https://www.linkedin.com/”]}}
