Plateau Govt Committed to Accountability – Hon Ramnap

By Israel Adamu, Jos

Plateau State Commissioner of Information and Communication, Joyce Lohya Ramnap, mni, has restated the present administration’s commitment to accountability in its service to God and humanity.

Making this statement during a discussion program on Rhythm 93:7 FM, Jos, Ramnap described Governor Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang as a leader who has the interest of his people at heart, and called on the people of the state to support his government.

The Commissioner mentioned some achievements of the “Time is Now” administration, such as payment of pension arrears, improved standard of education, road infrastructure, and efficient healthcare service, among others.

She spoke on the insecurity bedeviling the state in communities like Bokkos, Bassa, and Mangu, saying the government has invested a lot in the security sector but added that no state can fight the problem alone being a national issue.

The Commissioner further explained the reason behind the ban on commercial motorcycles, saying she was part of the legislature that passed the bill into law in 2010, during her term in the House of Assembly, saying there was compliance until the recent turn of events.

Ramnap stated that the government found it necessary to enforce the law because of security issues in the state, especially in those communities where attackers come on motorcycles and cause havoc.

She said the ban is for safety of the people, adding that people need to understand and come to terms with the new development to achieve success, adding that the law gives room for those operating private motorcycles and delivery workers to register accordingly.

She called on all to take responsibility, whether as youth leaders, pastors, imams, or traditional leaders, and urged on the creation of awareness because, according to her, there is a reason for every policy and that, in this case, it is to safeguard the lives and property of the people.

Speaking further, Ramnap said the present administration has made people with disability a priority and that efforts are being made to ensure that they are taken into consideration in all areas in line with the act setting up the Disability Rights Commission.

She also spoke on the issue regarding employments at the state-owned tertiary institutions, saying there were a lot of loopholes in the process, but that anyone who has a genuine complaint should write to the council and that the case will be looked into and those found qualified will be re-engaged.
