No doubt Chief Solomon Daushep Lar leaves behind incredible
legacies that live on in the hearts of
Nigerian people, today Baba Lar is no longer with us
physically, but his principles, philosophies, achievement and his acts of
kindness, done without expectation of reward or recognition are immortal and
has a special place in people’s heart and will be spreading from generation to
generation.
The Bible tells us in Proverbs 13:22" A good man leaves
an inheritance to his children, but sinners wealth is stored up for the
righteous this verse keeps our life goals on vision and legacy front.
Today in continuation of Baba's legacy those of us who share
in the vision of Chief S D Lar will agree with me that Solomon Lar's philosophy
was to make his people self-reliant,
Baba's self-reliance was portrayed in his quest, vision and
determination to free his people and give them economic, political and cultural
power " A self-reliant person does not exploit other people and at the
same time they are not exploitable"
Indeed, this was the philosophy of our father mentor and the
emancipator, a politician who has held various political offices in Nigeria for
over 50 years successfully.
To keep on and in continuation of these incredible legacies,
Baba's daughter, Hon Beni Butmak Lar is like a father like a daughter. Hon Beni
Lar a politician of the People’s Democratic party a current ranking serving
member of the house of Representatives, representing Lantang north and south
recently unveiled her basic concept on the provision of support for her people
by organizing her yearly constituency briefing and economic empowerment.
The 2021 constituency briefing and economic empowerment of
women and youths, widows, religious and traditional leaders took place in Lantang
north and south on the 23rd and 24th day of July 2021 with Prof Elias Nankap
Lamle of the centre for conflict management and peace studies University of Jos
who made a paper presentation, THE ROLE OF THE LEGISLATORS AND THE ROLE OF
EXECUTIVE IN A DEMOCRATIC SETTING
Indeed, Beni's constituency briefing and economic
empowerment are anchored on a deliberate program that promotes investment and
financial instruments that target millions of unemployed people, hustler
enterprises, and farmers to be self-reliant.
Her election into the house of representative has completely
changed the conversation and fortune of the good people of plateau,
particularly Lantang north and south,
No Wonder the people have signed, sealed and delivered a new
slogan ONLY BENI CAN DEFEAT BENI
