Lalong said the implementation of full autonomy for all arms of government is a clear indication that his Rescue Administration believes in the growth and stability of institutions.

He said: “Right from the onset, we were committed to implementing autonomy because we were never afraid.

“At the moment, Niger, Adamawa and Nasarawa states have sent their people to come and study what we have done.”

Speaker of the Plateau State House of Assembly Nuhu Abok Ayuba expressed the appreciation of the House to Governor Lalong for his personal commitment and openness.

Chief Judge of Plateau State Justice Yakubu Gyang Dakwak also appreciated the efforts of the Governor who did not only adhere to legal requirements, but also facilitated political solutions to deal with grey areas.
