Senator representing Plateau South Senatorial District Simon Bako Lalong has described as unacceptable the continuous neglect of Plateau South and Central Senatorial Districts by the power sector in Nigeria as they remain in darkness despite all efforts and promises by relevant agencies.
Dr. Makut Simon Macham , Special Adviser (Media) to Senator Simon Bako Lalong, Plateau South Senatorial District disclosed in a statement on Monday 13th January 2025.
Despite this, he regrets that the situation is yet to be resolved inspite of recent assurances by the TCN which are yet to be fulfilled.
He therefore appealed to the Minister of Power Chief Adebayo Adelabu to immediately bring the long delayed fulfilment of the dream to an end which will unlock many economic opportunities for the people who are highly agrarian and productive.
Senator Lalong said the Senate will do everything possible to appropriate funds and carry out oversight that will finally make the people feel the Renewed Hope government’s impact.
Senator Lalong also attended the budget defence of the Senate Committee on Judiciary, Human Rights and Legal Matters where he is the Vice Chairman.
He harped on the need for proper funding of the Judiciary and said the independence of that arm of government must be sustained.
He was also at the budget defence by Senate Committees on Navy and Finance.
