Senator representing Plateau North in the National Assembly, Jonah David Jang yesterday threatened litigation for those that linked him with the protests that greeted the All Progressives Congress, APC government’s policy on grazing reserve and ranching.

A statement yesterday by Jang’s media aide, Comrade Clinton Garuba, said senator’s attention has been drawn to remarks allegedly made by Governor Simon Lalong of Plateau State to the effect that he (Jang) was responsible for the protests that greeted the government’s policy on grazing reserve and ranching.

Jang said, “If the APC government accuses Jang of being behind the protest that stopped its plan to implement a grazing reserve policy in the state, then it is an indictment on itself for failing to unite and galvanise the people toward working for the growth and development of the state.

“If the stand of Jang has awakened the people to reject the mortgaging of their state, then Lalong is right to have said Jang is responsible. It must however, be stated in unequivocal terms that Senator Jang does not support and will not support acquisition of land for herdsmen under any guise or by whatever nomenclature it is known.

“We wish Lalong and his cohorts on the journey to selling off Plateau State well and urge them to go ahead with their pursuit for personal gain but they should also remember that the clock is ticking and they have limited time to either deliver on the dividends of democracy or be shown the way out in 2019.

“As for Sen. Jang and all lovers of Plateau, we have only one heritage, a truly united and indivisible state where we would live in the serenity provided for us by God and nature.”
