More reactions have continued to trail the appeal court judgements that nullified the election of Governor Caleb Mutfwang and some state and National Assembly members, with a call on President Bola Tinubu to appoint the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Nentawe Yilwatda, as minister from Plateau State, to replace Simon Lalong.

The Plateau Youths Liberation Movement said this in Jos, the Plateau State Capital, while speaking on political happenings in the state.

The youths who are worried over the political crisis in the state say if allowed to escalate, it could lead to serious disharmony not only for the state but the nation at large. According to them, appointing Nentawe will reduce the political impasse.

They said the good work Governor Mutfwang has started based on the mandate given to him by the Plateau people must not be cut short.

They equally expressed confidence in the Supreme Court’s ability to critically act in the defence of democracy.
