Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia has suspended his Special Adviser on Documentation, Research, and Planning, Dr Mkor Aondona, infinitely.
The governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Tersoo Kula, announced this in a statement issued on Sunday, June 22, 2025.
Aondona was arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Friday, June 20, over alleged sextortion, cyberbullying, and blackmail.
Alia, in the statement, said the decision was in line with his commitment to upholding integrity, discipline, and accountability in public service.
He said any official in his administration found wanting in matters of criminality or unethical misconduct would face the full weight of the law.

The governor assured the public that the law would take its full course without interference or bias, adding that his administration would not tolerate any act that brings the government into disrepute or undermines public trust.
Alia noted that public office was a call to serve with honour, transparency, and responsibility, saying anyone who deviated from this path would have no place in his government.
The suspended aide is expected to submit himself fully to the legal process to answer to the allegations levelled against him.
