Give it ten years, parts of the Benue and Plateau would become Muslim dominated. They agitate for deputy governorship position, house of assembly, local government areas chairmen etc. I thought the new governor will stop the tide since he was loved by Benuians? Anyway, the state is gone. Nothing can stop it. 1 Like |
