Deputy governor of Taraba, Haruna Manu, and his Benue counterpart, Benson Abounu, in the absence of their principals, move to end clash between the Tiv and the Jukun. Nigeria

At last, the much-desired peace between the Tiv and the Jukun, which Governors Darius Ishaku of Taraba State and Samuel Ortom of Benue failed to achieve before leaving the country for holidays, is about being realised by their deputies.

Both deputies, who yesterday meet at the premises of the Federal University, Wukari in Taraba, did not hide their ill-feelings towards the two groups who recently threw caution to the wind. Manu, who called on the people, especially the youths, to bury the hatchet and embrace peace for the good of all, said for the dream of his principal to get dividends of democracy to the nooks and crannies of the state, peace must reign.

He urged Tiv people living in Taraba to remain calm and respect constituted authority, as the laws of the state bound them.
