It seems there is a running battle in the Taroh House, in view of the 2019 gubernatorial. The Jerry Useni Campaign group have accused the Distinguish Sen.Victor Lar of desperation and lies. in their words

“The art of greed, desperation and mischief at its best. Reliable information shows that Sen. Victor Lar was the only one who even rejected the Taroh elders process of picking a consensus candidate among them at its inception on the ground that his supporters barred him from signing any agreement or conceeding to anyone. Finally he accepted at their last meeting and has gone ahead to produce a result before the conclusion of the process. The Taroh elders are yet to deliberate on the 3 names forwarded to them as this was done only yesterday 23/8/2018. There has been no meeting for such deliberations since then. This is contempt and a direct slap on the Taroh elders. It is being laboriously meant to truncate the process. I urge the Taroh elders to continue the good work they are doing. They should not be detracted please.”

PLATEAU 2019: RE: ENDORSEMENT OF A CANDIDATE BY TAROK NATION

The attention of Sen. Jerry. Useni Campaign Organisation (JUCO) has been drawn to a publication being circulated on the social media of a “consensus” candidate agreed upon and endorsed by Taroh elders.
Here are the facts we know:-
1. The Taroh elders set up a committee to liaise with aspirants from the Tarok nation from all political parties to negotiate a consensus candidate.
2. The committee consists of 14 members under the chairmanship Air Marshal Jonah Wuyep rtd. and Barr. Jilli Dandam as Secretary and they were tasked with negotiating a truce among the aspirants.
3. The Committee’s report to the elders is that none of the aspirants is willing to step down for the other.
4. Taroh elders are now deliberating the way forward.
Therefore we at JUCO wish to distance ourselves from the so-called “consensus” and ask that our teeming supporters to disregard the story.
However, we appreciate and respect what the Taroh nation is doing. It is a good step in the right direction. We stand/support them and hope that this all ends up good and in the best interest of the Plateau man.
We remain in the race to restore Plateau State.
LONG LIVE PLATEAU STATE!!!
LONG LIVE NIGERIA!!!
