Former Plateau State Governor, Jonah David Jang, has attributed the persistence of the crisis in the state to ineffective efforts by successive administrations. He made this statement during a recent interview, as reported by Daily Trust.
Jang, who served as governor from 2007 to 2015, noted that despite numerous attempts to address the underlying issues, the crisis has continued for years. He called for a more comprehensive approach to tackle the root causes.
The crisis in Plateau State has been marked by recurring communal clashes, leading to loss of lives and displacement of residents. Various state and federal interventions have been implemented, but lasting peace remains elusive.
Jang's remarks come amid ongoing efforts by the current administration to restore stability in the region. The former governor emphasized the need for dialogue and inclusive governance to achieve sustainable peace.
