I’ve Forgiven You, Tallen Tells Jonah Jang

Former Minister of Women Affairs, Dame Pauline Tallen, has publicly acknowledged her past political differences with former Plateau State governor, Jonah Jang, declaring that she had forgiven him and moved on.

Tallen made the declaration during the celebration of Jang’s 80th birthday and the public presentation of his autobiography, ‘From Airman to Politics’, in Jos at the weekend.

The event attracted Vice President Kashim Shettima, former President Goodluck Jonathan, governors, lawmakers, traditional rulers and political leaders from across the country.

In what many observers described as one of the defining moments of the ceremony, the former minister said she had chosen reconciliation over resentment, insisting that the political disagreements that once strained their relationship had become history.
