“I am not aware of any authority by a governor to redefine traditional boundaries. Government cannot redefine boundaries where there is no problem,” Buba said on Friday in Jos.
“There has been government pronouncement and actions to do with the traditional institution even when there was no problem. We have no problem with our neighbours and we have been in peace with one another. “We will sit with government and educate government about what it is; we hope we will have the listening ear of the governor to make amends where they have made errors.“We appeal to the Berom nation to please calm down. We will follow due process and we are absolutely sure that God will not forsake us,” he added.
“All the judicial commissions of inquiry agreed with the position that Jos belongs to the Afizere, Anaguta and the Berom. Wuyep acknowledge that the cultural festival was a unifying force that also promotes peaceful coexistence, adding that it was an avenue to project the Berom cultural identity, attract tourists and promote socio-economic activities.
