Ex - governor of Plateau State and the senator representing Plateau North senatorial zone, Senator Jonah David Jang, has revealed that he will not hand over to a younger person in 2019 as according to him, the “Senate is not for young people.”
The senator made the statement over the weekend, adding that the House of Representatives is the best option for the young people, “the Senate is not good for young people, only the House of Representatives is good enough.”
According to reports the young people are ready to drag it out with the senator if he refuses to retire from politics as they believe “his political weight has diminished since he left the Plateau Government House as governor and that he can be defeated giving the new realignments in the state.”
The disciples of Jang who owe their political fortunes to the former governor, like Istifanus Gyang (PDP) and Edward Pwajok (APC), who are in the House of Representatives are believed to be interested in the Senate seat as posters indicating their interest have flooded the city of Jos.
