According to him, Governor Lalong while signing the bills into law at Government House Jos, said his government was determined to take the opportunities that abound in the state to uplift all the sectors of Plateau state economy.
The statement added, “These four bills that he has signed into law would go a long way to bridge the gap created by the absence of the enabling laws guiding the operations of the relevant agencies as they would also reduce the hardship faced by the citizens of the state as they go about attending to their daily needs.”
