DANIEL DAUDA, Jos
The Plateau Youth Council (PYC) Northern Senatorial District has expressed disappointment and concern over the poor performance of Senator Pam Mwadkon Dachungyang, representing Plateau North in the National Assembly.
PYC said Senator Dachungyang’s performance has been deemed unsatisfactory, with little to no impact on the lives of his constituents.
They alleged that the senator is inaccessible to the people, ignoring efforts by the PYC to engage him as the Northern Senatorial zone lags behind due to poor leadership and lack of opportunities.
Comrade Samson Chiroma, PYC zonal coordinator, Plateau North, who led other members during a press conference on Friday in Jos the state capital, threatened a recall process against the senator, citing his inaccessibility and lack of meaningful contribution to the development of the zone.
“In view of this unfortunate development, the PYC is left with no option than to initiate the recall process of the senator.
“Painful as this decision may seem, we have reached the conclusion that for the zone to enjoy any meaningful development, representatives like Senator Dachungyang must be shown the way out to serve as a deterrent to those who may want to treat the mandate of the people with levity.
“What we demand is accountability from those who are representing at the state and national levels.
The era where people just occupy public office and operate as if it is a personal enterprise is gone.
“Political office holders must be accountable to the people they represent. Governance must be participatory and all-inclusive for us to enjoy the dividends of democracy.
Anything short of this is not only unacceptable to PYC but must be addressed squarely and promptly”, Chiroma averred.
Condemning the December 31st, 2025, violent attack on Bum community, Vwang District of Jos South where lives were lost, the coordinator is saddened that this latest attack on hapless citizens proves that we are not yet out of the woods.
“We therefore call on all and sundry, especially traditional and religious leaders as well as security operatives to ensure that perpetrators of this renewed onslaught do not go unpunished to deter others.
“As we pray for the repose of the souls of the departed, it is our prayer that those injured in this senseless act receive speedy healing.”
