“I am capable of responding to the issues being raised against me and other officials of my government and I have always made known my belief in the rule of law.

He urged his supporters not to heat up the polity but to remain calm and law abiding in the face of alleged provocation by the ruling All Progressives Congress in the state.
Ortom appreciated concerns expressed by different people over his alleged harassment through petitions to anti-graft agencies, as well as arrests of his appointees and impoundment of his vehicles.
The former governor also called for calm and urged those making statements regarding the situation to exercise restraint and not to heat up the polity.
