Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Governor Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State has appealed to the protesters of the #EndBadGoverance in the state to end the demonstration.<\/p>\n

He alleged that credible sources have revealed the invitation of hoodlums from neighbouring states to disrupt the peace in the state.<\/p>\n

Addressing citizens on Tuesday morning in a state-wide broadcast, the governor insisted that merchants of violence are not happy about the peace the state is enjoying and are infiltrating the peaceful exercise to cause chaos.<\/p>\n

He assured that some of the steps his administration is taking to mitigate hardship, promising to meet with leaders of youth groups for dialogue, and commended stakeholders\u2019 roles in containing the activities of the hoodlums who looted shops and attacked innocent citizens.<\/p>\n

The governor said, \u201cSince the commencement of your constitutionally guaranteed right of protest, you have demonstrated, to the admiration of other Nigerians and even the international community, that the glorious days of the beautiful and peaceful Plateau are back…\u201d<\/p>\n

He said that the state government has invested in technology to address the orchestrated distractions of insecurity, banditry, and insurgency, distractions which have significantly strengthened our common and major enemy \u2013 poverty.<\/p>\n

On the protest, he said, \u201cI have heard you clearly, and we are in this together. I, therefore, appeal to you to stay further protests so we can dialogue with your leaders to add value to our thinking and plans for poverty alleviation since we do not possess a monopoly of wisdom. As soon as the protests are over, we shall meet with the leaders of the youth groups across the state for further dialogue.\u201d<\/p>\n
