A former governor of Plateau, Jonah Jang, has stated that the recent killings in the state is an agenda to wipe out the indigenes and permanently displace them from their ancestral lands.

Jang noted that the people have continued to “bear the brunt of terrorists who seem to have sworn to dispossess them of their heritage at all costs. That these killers are out on a cleansing agenda and plan to take over the lands of the people they try to wipe out is no longer hidden.”

He added, “There is the need to attend to the call for State police as part of measures for boosting security, ensuring early response in crises, and confronting the challenges headlong. The killings are getting out of hand and the State Police option is viable for nipping these massacres in the bud.”

On his part, the Senator representing Plateau Central in the National Assembly, Diket Plang, said: “Facts on the ground reveal that there is forceful occupation of attacked communities, which is a pointer that land grabbing is real in the sstate.

“We need a permanent solution to the Plateau issue. Criminality has crept in, and security should be heightened at the entry and exit points in the state. The Plateau issue should be more nationalistic. There is the aspect of land grabbing; the facts are there.


“The humanitarian assistance should include the provision of building materials for the rebuilding of destroyed homes so that the owners could return home, and the security personnel should be stationed at strategic locations to give the people a sense of safety.

“We need to change our grazing policy and adopt technology in livestock and crop agriculture; your profession should not impede on mine.”

I support his call for state policing

And the useless former governor Simon Lalong has not deemed it fit to commiserate with his home state? Wicked soul.

Are they more powerful that our Leaders ?
