 Platte State Governor Simon Lalong says the leadership crisis rocking the state House of Assembly is a fallout of autonomy which he granted the state legislature. Speaking at a ceremony for the swearing-in office, 15 newly appointed special advisors in JOS, the state capital, the governor said because the legislature is an independent and autonomous arm of government, they must be allowed to resolve their challenges and grow as an institution. According to the governor, the new appointees who were sworn in were those who played various roles at different times in ensuring that his administration came into office.
