The governor of Plateau State and Chairman of the Northern governors forum has called for calm following the threat by coalition of Northern groups .
He stated that efforts are in place to sort the challenges posed by the scheme.
“In the meantime, we are happy to announce that we are reaching out engagement with major stakeholders in the matter particularly in the North”
“This is after receiving the position of the leadership of the Coalition of Northern Groups with the hope of getting the public to fully understand the whole concept and the wisdom behind the decision by the government.
“We acknowledge here the Coalition’s concerns and in particular, its decency in urging the northern people to remain civil and resist the temptation to be drawn into anything untoward.
“We are reassured that the leadership of the Coalition is genuinely and responsibly concerned with the betterment of the whole nation and with the well-being of the Northern region and people in particular and that it will continue to work for calm and understanding,” Lalong said.
The governor assured that at the end of the day, what was coming out of the suspension would turn out to be more beneficial and in the best interest of the whole nation.
“We are working on a complete package that comes with multi-sectoral and multidimensional benefits that will serve the interests of all both in the short and long terms,” he said.
This is coming as tension continue to flare over the proposed scheme which has been suspended .
