Senate not for young people – Senator Jonah Jang

Senator Jonah Jang (Plateau North) at the weekend said the Upper Chamber is for people with pedigree and political experience.

The Senate, he declared, is not for young people without political experience.

Speaking in an interview programme at the weekend, Jang said the House of Representatives would be good for younger politicians.

He spoke on the backdrop of reports that his political protégé were warming up for his seat based on insinuations he might not seek reelection at over 70.

But the former Plateau State Governor said: “The Senate is not for good for young people, only the House of Representatives is good enough.”
