We act as if the governments are aliens and not you and I. Our problem is not a government problem but a mindset formed from how morally bankrupt our upbringing is. Every bad behaviour you see today is a product of the homes we all came from. We expect badly behaved and illtrained individuals who come into power to suddenly become saints and when they don't we call them government faults. We carry our flawed character everyday without the willingness to change who we are, change our mindset and belief systems and then get into power and become a worse version of ourselves. This is not a government issue but a people issue. Until we go back to the root of our problems and start raising children with right character who will become agents of change and take those renewed mindsets into leadership positions Nigeria will not be what we want it to be. Not even prayers alone can help us. We have to be intentional in fixing ourselves first then we can have a Nigeria we want.
@manlikezeal_@ruffydfire The man understood without the help of his elder brother he won't wear the cap of the governor and he has demonstrated that with or without that cap he will continue to honour and respect him. Your belief systems and what works for you is completely different from others.
@manlikezeal_@ruffydfire I think you need to learn the power of honour and what it does. When you see genuine honour it is not human worship. But you ability to recognise the rule people have played in your journey of life and being able to remove your crown and acknowledge them.
@Abdulherphyz@NigAffairs@woye1 A lot can be done to correct the system and processes for approval to mitigate some of these excesses within the system. And we Nigerian's are also guilty. We know the right thing but sometimes want the system to bend for us.
@Abdulherphyz@NigAffairs@woye1 Not supporting the minister, but if you know the level of crazy things going on within development control and FCDA. Even the devil will be shocked if he finds out what those staffs do. Just have money and those staffs will give you building approval to build on top Villa.
@MakutJunior Senator Jang and has not even seen the need to sit down with the brain behind Operation Rainbow to ask him about what his strategy was when he created it and then improve on it.
@MakutJunior I have asked this question countless times. Why did the past administration after jang ignored Operation rainbow? A well thought out and structured security arm with men trained in Israel. And now we have a current governor who has a strong relationship with
STATEMENT BY THE PLATEAU CONSENSUS MOVEMENT: On the Northern Nigeria Security Trust Fund and Plateau's Own Security Priorities Jos, July 9, 2026
We note the inauguration of the Northern Nigeria Security Trust Fund and Governor Caleb Mutfwang's participation alongside his colleagues from across the nineteen northern states. A monthly regional commitment of one billion naira, and a board that includes a son of Plateau in Napoleon Bali, is worth acknowledging.
Coordinated funding for a region under pressure from banditry and kidnapping is not a bad idea. But it is not Plateau's idea, and it does not answer Plateau's problem.
The vocabulary of the new Trust Fund is banditry, terrorism, cattle rustling, criminality that crosses borders and needs a regional response. That is a real crisis for much of the North. It is not, on its own, an accurate description of what Plateau faces. What threatens us here is not itinerant criminality passing through. It is a slower, more targeted pressure on specific communities, their land, and their right to remain who they are on soil their ancestors are buried in. Call it what our people already call it: an existential threat to our survival and our "heritage."
A fund designed and governed at a regional table, built around a different vocabulary of crisis, does not reflect the sincerity that Plateau's peculiar and existential situation demands. Sincerity here looks like Plateau's own instrument, fully resourced, answerable to Plateau's own government. That instrument already exists. It is called Operation Rainbow, and it has gone under-equipped and underfunded for longer than any of us should be comfortable admitting. If nineteen states can find one billion naira a month for a regional fund, Plateau State can find the resources to revamp, re-equip, and reposition Operation Rainbow which can be backed by the kind of appropriation that meets modern day reality, not the shortfalls of a bygone budget cycle.
Drones, digital mapping, early warning systems, real intelligence infrastructure; the same tools the new regional board says it intends to deploy elsewhere are just as necessary here, and they should not reach Plateau only on Kaduna's schedule.
This is where the State House of Assembly has a job to do, and so far has not done it. Appropriation for Operation Rainbow cannot keep arriving as an afterthought in a budget cycle dominated by other concerns. The Assembly holds the power of the purse in this state, and the power of the purse is exactly what a security outfit fighting for Plateau's survival has been denied. We call on our lawmakers to wake up to that fiscal responsibility and appropriate what Operation Rainbow actually needs to function, not what is left over once every other line item has been satisfied.
Plateau will support every legitimate regional and federal effort to bring peace to the North. But peace for Plateau starts with an instrument that is ours, funded by a legislature that is ours, and accountable to the communities whose survival is actually at stake.
Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!
Long live Plateau State!

@grok@Okoliemeka_@thedispenser_ Grok has a personal beef with the owner of the house at the top, 😄. See how he cut off the road, I wonder how cars will go up the hill.
@Barristerstreet power doesn't favour them and then start talking about forming alliance. Aside to take over power these guys all don't mean well for the country.
They get so carried away with winning without a structured plan on how and what to do when they get into power.
@Barristerstreet I think there's something we keep forgetting, these guys are the same set of people recycling themselves in different party's. The fact that Peter Obi aligns with this guy's honestly makes me see him in a different light.
They all come each election year if the administration in
