On the plight of the persons with disabilities, Nentawe revealed to the public administration that apart from schooling with some of them at Gindiri Boys Secondary School, he was one of the committee members who passed the laws and procedures in the electoral law for them drafted. to participate in the electoral process in the country.

He also noted that Plateau State has contributed significantly to the country’s housing needs, but has not benefited as much from the scheme as expected.

After the approximately three-hour debate, Nentawe was later judged during fact-checking to have provided accurate data to support his presentations.
