A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Hon Shehu Bala Usman, has chided the Plateau state government and council chairmen of under development, despite getting huge monies from the monthly federal allocations.
Hon Usman, who is also the immediate past chairman of Jos North Local Government Council, said the APC is strategising to reclaim governance of the state in the 2027 general elections, over, “failure of the setting government to bring development at grassroots.”
“People are tied in Plateau State, where is all the money that are coming to the State and Local Governments, from the Federal Government, are going.
“I am once a local government chairman and I know how I suffered to even paid salaries, but today you have almost 150 percent increament of what you have received before and so we should be expecting development at the grassroots, and I want to tell you all development are grassroot.
“We should be seeing development in the area of local security and engagement, we should be seeing the increment of development in primary healthcare, we should be seeing it in the atmosphere of technical teaching in our primary schools,” he said.
Usman said their meeting arose from the directives by Senator Simon Lalong, and the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Nentawe Yilwatda, that reiterated the need to unify and also strengthen the party at the grassroots.
