WHITHER THE PLATEAU LEGACY GROUP (PLG): APPRECIATING SACRIFICES OF OUR LEADERS

WHITHER THE PLATEAU LEGACY GROUP (PLG): APPRECIATING SACRIFICES OF OUR LEADERS

Let’s say you are hearing the name Plateau Legacy Group (PLG) for the first time and you are from Plateau State.

Let’s for your purposes attempt to break it into the level of your understanding to appreciate its formation.

There comes a time in the life of a people who appreciate the contributions of their leaders as a cause.

To appropriate it in the context of creating a niche for such a leader, it is worthy to create and establish a group of friends and supporters that would keep his memory incandescent.

Each one of us must have at a point venerated a leader or two. Here in the state, JD Gomwalk readily comes to mind. Today, many rate him highly for his accomplishments while he lasted supritending over the affairs of Benue Plateau State as Military Governor.

When the news filtered that a group ostensibly formed to keep and appreciate the legacies of Governor Simon Bako Lalong, many took it with a pinch of salt.

The Plateau Legacy Group (PLG) is populated by Plateau sons and daughters from various walks of life, interested in accentuating the place of Barr Simon Bako Lalong in the leadership position of the state and Nigeria.

But more importantly, the need for leaders to be appreciated for the quality of service they offer. When such is done, it motivates them more than ever to contribute for the development of the state

Most of those who became aware of the development thought it was intended to establish a political empire for the governor.

When that didn’t fly, it was shifted to an alleged plan by the group to foist Dr Nentawe Yilwatda Goshwe as Governor of the state.

It must be noted, that the Plateau Legacy Group (PLG) which is led by Rt Hon Yusuf Adamu Gagdi is a product of the seed of sacrifice by leaders in the state to be appreciated. If we are able to consciously value them, we are going to be the better for it.

We say this on account of the fact that it is In God We Trust!
