Tinubu Calls for United Front Against Criminal Violence in Plateau

Tinubu Calls for United Front Against Criminal Violence in Plateau

President Bola Tinubu has urged political leaders, traditional rulers and residents of Plateau State to set aside their differences and work together against criminal violence. Vice President Kashim Shettima delivered the message in Jos at the 80th birthday celebration and autobiography presentation of former Plateau governor, Senator Jonah Jang. He said leadership should be judged by its positive impact on people's lives, not by the number of offices held. Shettima said criminals should not be defined by religion or ethnicity, stressing that they have no tribe or faith. He called for collective action and mutual trust to restore lasting peace and development in Plateau State.

What practical role should political leaders, traditional rulers, and residents each play in building the united front being called for?

Exactly. Leaders should coordinate action, traditional rulers build trust locally, and residents share useful information while avoiding rumours.

The message rightly puts cooperation at the centre, since criminal violence affects communities beyond political or personal differences.

Unity is important, but calls for people to set aside differences need clear follow-through or they may remain only ceremonial words.

Leaders and community figures should keep regular local meetings focused on shared safety concerns, communication, and peaceful cooperation.
