Jos

A cross section of Jos residents have tasked government at all levels to tackle headlong the issue of insecurity and poverty.

They were reacting to the challenges the nation passed through in the year 2020, and are hopeful of better days ahead, if only government would be more proactive.

For residents of Jos, the year 2020 will never be forgotten in a hurry.


This is due to the numerous challenges the people were faced with, especially in the areas of insecurity, poverty, as well as the government’s failure to uphold the rule of law.

Some say if the government can address the security situation and boost the economy, 2021 could possibly be a better one for Nigerians.

Other put the blame on the nation’s lawmakers, who failed to stand by the electorates who voted them into power.

One thing that is key however is that the people look forward to a society where people can move freely, go to their farms without any fear of being attacked, and be able to cater for their needs.

Since the year has just began, it is hoped that the nation’s leaders will make frantic efforts, to bring about the necessary change the people hope for.
