PLATEAU STATE: IT’S TIME TO ACT
The Governor of Plateau State, Caleb Mutfwang, is hereby urged, in keeping with the highest standards of public responsibility, to address the ongoing violence and killings directed against Plateau indigenes.
Governor Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State is being urged to take immediate action to curb the violence and killings targeting Plateau indigenes. These acts of aggression are not only intolerable but also infringe upon the safety, dignity, and constitutional rights of affected communities. To ensure the protection of Plateau indigenes, effective security deployment is essential. Incidents must be swiftly investigated, and the law must be enforced decisively to prevent further harm.
The call for action extends to all stakeholders, including the federal and state governments, security agencies, traditional leaders, civil society organizations, and community representatives. These entities must unite urgently to restore and sustain peace in Plateau State. Coordination of security strategies, strengthening early-warning mechanisms, and implementing community-based conflict prevention measures are crucial steps.
Traditional and community leaders should be engaged to bolster local peace structures, while civil society should facilitate dialogue, reconciliation, and accurate reporting.
Achieving lasting peace in Plateau State will not be accomplished through mere declarations. It demands coordinated action, demonstrable security improvements, and unwavering commitment from all responsible parties.
