His words, “People outside the State are under the illusion that Plateau is a no-go area, Plateau people are a peace-loving people, a welcoming people and very receptive to visitors. If they try to paint us in any way other than who we are, we must stand up and tell our stories.

We have divided the State into three agricultural zones focusing on rice, yams, palm oil, maize, wheat, coffee, Irish potatoes, acha , fruits and vegetables, and flower production. These will be brought to international standards to earn revenue…”
