Governor Jonah Jang of Plateau state has said that his counterpart Governor Babangida Aliyu is the chief betrayer of the North. He made the statement in response to remarks made by Governor Aliyu which stated that President Jonathan was positioning to bribe 400 prominent Northern politicians in order to secure the support of the North for his 2015 elections.
Jang said, “If Governor Aliyu is accusing anybody in the North of betrayal, maybe he should think hard to find out if these people did not learn the act from him.
“Nigerians are not stupid, the more the issues unravel, the more they see the root cause of some of the issues plaguing our polity today and those responsible through their deceit and dishonour which now means governors can no longer sit down together and believe anything they agree on collectively.”
He said Aliyu needed to look no further than the mirror to see who the betrayer was, and also accused his Niger state counterpart of not recognizing him as a core Northerner.
