From Christiana Gokyo, Jos
The Plateau Peace Practitioners Network (PPPN) has inaugurated a new Advisory Board to guide its peace-building efforts in the state.
The event, held at the Government House Banquet Hall in Jos, also marked the launch of the first edition of the PPPN Journal.
Speaking at the event, Rev. Dr. Gideon Para-Msllam emphasized the importance of addressing systemic issues that undermine peace efforts.
He called for greater inclusivity, particularly for non-indigenes and minority faiths, and urged the government to take the lead in facilitating meaningful dialogue among communities.
The PN President, Nanmak D. Bali, expressed gratitude for the progress made in peace-building but acknowledged the challenges that remain.
He emphasized the importance of youth in peace-building and called for renewed efforts to build lasting harmony.
The newly inaugurated Advisory Board is expected to play a key role in guiding peace initiatives, while the PN Journal will serve as a vital resource in the ongoing work to build a peaceful Plateau.
