OPINION: SEN. DR. JONAH DAVID JANG’S SALIENT PROBLEMS AND ENEMIES UNVEILING, AS HE FACES TRIAL. THE AVOIDABLE

Former governor of Plateau State and the immediate past Senator that represented Plateau North Senatorial District, Senator, Dr. Jonah David Jang, may be facing trial at the hands of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) at the Plateau State High Court of Justice, for alleged corruption and misappropriation of Plateau State funds during his tenure, but the trial has began to expose and unveil several other problems of the then governor and some enemies within.

It is strange to observe that, as the trial of Sen. Jang by the EFCC continues, the evidence been elicited from the witnesses have began to show that, Sen. Jang, seems not to know his fellow accused person properly. It is also indicating that he seems not to have had direct dealings with him all through his tenure, as the then governor of Plateau State.

Worrisome also is that, the evidence been elicited indicates that some of his trusted former appointees/aides may have been working directly with his fellow accused person, throughout his 8 years, as governor of Plateau State, with him not been aware until the trial of the duo.

Furthermore, the listening audience at the Court, are thrilled by some evidence from a star witness of the EFCC that, the money been complained of that is allegedly, running into Billions of Naira, were never found in Sen. Jang’s home or in any of his personal accounts. Neither were they found in any of his transactions in his numerous Bank Accounts.

The witness also under cross examination from Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN), Counsel to the Defendants (Sen. Jang and another) has told the Court that, under investigation, he never found the alleged sum in any Account owned by any of Sen. Jang’s family members homes or children in any of their transactions with their various Banks.

From the on-going trial, Sen. Jang, seems to have just realized that he had trusted a lot of his appointees/aides blindly since, he never placed proper checks on them.

The trial has further exposed to the Senator Dr. that, he failed to check or evaluate his battles, conflicts and wars properly, while he was a governor and a serving Senator, as his former appointees/aides, have began to make peace with some of his perceived enemies, antagonists, opponents, foes or rivals in the political waters in the state with 2023 election as target.

It must therefore not be a thing of surprise to the embattled Senator that, while he is on trial for all his then team of State Executives, many have failed to turn up in the Court to demonstrate solidarity or sympathize with his new state.

It is a sad fact that, while his team of Counsels are having sleepless night to see how the former governor/Senator would regain his freedom and legally escape the gates of prison, some of his former appointee/aides have been busy, celebrating the last Sallah holidays, cheerful and joyously making merry.

The lesson to be learned here is that, in the laws of power, the superior and leader must remain a leader and be respect as such.

The current focus of most of the former appointees/aides of Sen. Dr. Jonah David Jang on 2023 election, though has been condemned and described as selfish, still remains a wrong way to go and avoidable for now, as the leader is carrying the peoples’ cross and that of the Middle-Belt zone.
