How North Central Will Intervene in Plateau Killing Spree – Nasarawa Governor
Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State says that governors of the North Central states will intervene in the Plateau State crisis towards finding a lasting peace.
The governor disclosed this to State House correspondents after a visit to President Bola Tinubu on Sunday in Lagos.
He said that the governors would meet with the victims and other critical stakeholders involved in the Christmas eve killings.
“I’m also the chairman of the North Central Governors forum. So, I told Mr. President about some of the things happening in our own zone, including issues in Plateau.

He said, “Mr President is very concerned about the security of the people and very concerned about what is happening on the Plateau and what is happening in the Northeast and most especially in the North Central.
“We are going to Plateau and we’re going to use the opportunity to talk to some major stakeholders or major actors.
“These issues of the Plateau are not the first time if you remember, I visited Governor Lalong when they had a similar situation.
“And it was an opportunity that I went with some traditional rulers, some religious leaders, and we were able to speak with a lot of people and since then, there had been some level of sanity until what just happened.
“The vice president visited and he was able to get a lot of information and when we also want to visit, I will talk to different kinds of people at the different level.
“I will be able to get more information that will feed Mr. President and wait for him to take proper action.”
Sule said he was not able to come on Monday when his colleagues came under the umbrella of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum because he travelled abroad.
