PRESS STATEMENT
REMEMBERING THE BIG PLATEAU CLOWN CALLED DAN MANJANG
These are truly not good times for some officials of the outgoing Simon Lalong government as they prepare to exit the political stage. Whenever one thinks of them, one of the first thing that comes to mind is the fact that there lived an information commissioner, Dan Manjang whose stock in trade is to bite the fingers that fed him and to disrespect his elders and previous breadwinners to any extent of impressing his grossly failed mentor, Governor Lalong.
It is no longer news on the Plateau that the outgoing Commissioner for information Dan Manjang has officially turned himself to a political clown, deeply beclouded by a dead conscience .
It is unthinkable, shameful and ungrateful for the commissioner to have written deliberate and insultive falsehood against the People of Plateau and a respected elderstatesman and former Governor Da J D JANG who brought him to limelight from his woods. This is not the first time the arrogant and treacherous Manjang is casting aspersion on his father and mentor, just to protect his bread under the failed Apc administration of.
His position is not only laughable but a self mockery of what his political fortunes has been reduced to because no serious, focused,responsible and intelligent politician will display such a behaviour in the public space.
Dan Manjang’s celebration of Nentawe ‘s victory even when election is yet to be conducted shows the level of myopic thinking and desperation and their rigging plans towards the forthcoming elections which is being unravelled by the day. By this act, Manjang has further exposed this government’s incompetence and insensitivity towards the People of the state. It is rather unfortunate that in the course of defending his sinking government he got carried away by his dead conscience leading to his naked macabre dance of shame peculiar to a drawing and overtly desperate appointee who lost out in his ambition to be the running mate of their candidate.
Manjang’s political career would soon be deregistered from the political space after March 18 as his action can best be described as mere act of shenanigans because reality is already downing on the APC governorship candidate ahead of the March 18 election leaving him to contend with the overwhelming pressure that has already set in on him.
We want to remind Manjang that only God gives power to whoever He wants and that his show of unbridled desperation leading to his outpouring insult on our elderstatesman is becoming evidently heightened by each passing day. We therefore urge him to take it easy because Mutfwang’s election is ordained by God and fully backed by the people of Plateau as seen in the support of our elderstatesman and leader Da J. D. Jang CON and other prominent Plateau elders.
While we urge Manjang to focus on his commissioner’s duties by informing Plateau citizens of the achievements of the government he is serving rather than outpouring his anger on the people of Plateau and our elders. We advise the commissioner to as usual, shamelessly try his luck again after our swearing in since he is well known for bulldozing his way from one administration to the other. Be reminded that you have reached a terminal point of such frivolous plans.
Manjang and his cohorts, we indeed know and understand the traumatic impact of contesting against a more popular, performing and generally accepted candidate as Barr Caleb Mutfwang because the emotional and psychological pressure that usually come with such is better imagined moreso, with your chances of winning very slim. In this instance Manjang’s act can best be described as a comedy to keep apc supporters hope alive when deep down in the commissioner’s mind he is battling a traumatic, psychological and emotional pressure particularly from where he hails from ” Riyom village.”
However, we urge Manjang not to drain himself with his overtly desperate approach to this election because it is only God who gives power to whoever He wants and since He has entrusted Barr Caleb Mutfwang with this responsibility to rescue and rebuild Plateau state,Dan and his candidate should try their luck again in 2027 when governor Mutfwang would be completing his first term of office because there is absolutely no doubt Plateau people are ready and determined to vote Caleb Mutfwang to Government House. Plateau people have spoken and will speak again. THE TIME IS NOW!!!
Signed.
