May 14, 2023 9:23 PMA group known as Civil Rights Action for Democracy has called on Bola Tinubu, president-elect, to appoint Simon Lalong, governor of Plateau, as the secretary to the government of the federation of the incoming administration.

The leadership acumen of the governor of Plateau state and chairman of the presidential campaign council was also instrumental to the party’s overall success despite the numerous hurdles that were before it.
