According to AL-LABEEB MEDIA, Jonah Jang, a former governor of Plateau State, has criticized the departing administration led by Governor Simon Lalong.
He
claimed that the departing governor had prevented the state's growth over the
previous eight years. On Monday, Clinton Garuba, his spokesperson, issued and
signed a statement. "One would not envy the incoming administration for
the enormity of work that it has to do in rebuilding the people's trust in the
government, its programs, and its policies," Jonah Jang said in lamenting
the decline in the state's leadership under Lalong.
"To
make up for eight years of inactivity, the government is hurriedly
commissioning projects, some of which it even inherited as ongoing projects of
the Jang administration, at a time when sections of the state are being
attacked by individuals hell-bent on waging genocide against the people.
"Perhaps the government realized too late that it had pursued personal
political goals at the expense of the state's overall well-being and is hurried
to claim that it at least did something when in fact it did almost
nothing." "Every Plateau resident is aware that the Jang
administration has given roads and infrastructure the attention they deserve
since the restoration of democracy in 1999.
"Let
them continue to live in delusion if Lalong and those who have failed to
counsel him on the necessity of being truthful as a leader believe they built
Jos, the capital of the Plateau State, from its foundation. The results of the
elections serve as evidence of their effectiveness over the previous eight
years. The Plateau people would have made their opinions known at the polls if
they had performed better. After failing, the best course of action would be to
quietly depart and continue his years-long service of lobbying for federal
appointments, leaving the state to suffer from a lack of leadership and
governance.
When
Caleb Mutfwang becomes governor on May 29, Jang urges him to get started on
rebuilding the state right away. He offered his condolences to the grieving
communities and hoped that the new administration's inauguration would bring
solace to the populace and put the state back on the path of advancement and
development.
