Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Plateau State have come together in a united front ahead of the upcoming local government elections scheduled for Wednesday.
The party is exuding confidence in its ability to secure victory in the elections, buoyed by the collective efforts of its leadership across the state.
Several key stakeholders of the party have temporarily relocated to their respective local government areas.
This move is aimed at fully mobilizing the electorate and proving that the APC remains a formidable political force in Plateau State.
These leaders, including former governors, senators, and current members of the House of Representatives, who had previously been working at cross purposes, have now set aside their differences and are working in unison to redeem the party’s image.
Among the notable leaders spearheading this effort are former governors Joshua Dariye and Simon Lalong.
Alongside them are both current and former members of the Senate and the House of Representatives, who are leading the charge in their constituencies to ensure victory for the APC.
This alignment of influential figures is seen as a crucial factor in boosting the party’s chances in the forthcoming elections.
In a statement on Tuesday issued by the acting publicity secretary of the APC in Plateau State, Mr. Shittu Bamaiyi, the party expressed confidence in its chances, citing the overwhelming support it has received since the official campaign kickoff a week ago.
The party’s optimism is further bolstered by the active involvement of well-known politicians in the mobilization efforts across the state’s seventeen local government areas.
The statement highlighted the importance of the stakeholders’ engagement with voters, emphasizing the need to re-establish APC-led administrations at the local government level.
According to the party, this election presents an opportunity to align the local governments with the APC leadership at both the state and federal levels, ensuring that Plateau State benefits from development and favorable policies.
At a recent campaign rally in Bokkos Local Government Area, former Governor Joshua Dariye addressed a large crowd of supporters, stressing the importance of voting for the APC.
He urged the people to align themselves with the ruling party, both at the state and federal levels, in order to maximize the benefits of governance.
He emphasized that voting in APC candidates would ensure that the people of Plateau State continue to enjoy the fruits of the party’s leadership and developmental strides.
With the election just days away, the APC in Plateau State is counting on the unity of its leadership and the overwhelming support from its base to secure a decisive victory.
The party believes that the concerted efforts of its stakeholders, who have temporarily set aside past differences to focus on a common goal, will be the key to achieving success at the polls.
