The former Governor of Plateau State and Ministerial nominee, Simon Bako Lalong has received more groups who are happy with his appointment as Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The latest are members of his Senatorial Campaign Council who visited to congratulate him.
The delegation was led by the Chairman of the Council Mr. Nanven Nimfel who said the team was excited with the news of the appointment and confirmation as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria by President Bola Tinubu and the Senate respectively.
Nimfel also told Lalong that the team remains intact despite the outcome of the Senatorial elections and will continue to work for him in his political journey to serve Plateau State and Nigeria at large.
Lalong in a response said he was happy that the Senatorial campaign team remains united and has not been affected by the outcome of the elections which means they believe in the APC and his vision.
He said politics is a game that requires patience and commitment which is not only demonstrated during victory but much more during setbacks.
He assured them that he will not forget their sacrifices and hardwork which is engraved in his heart.
Similarly, the former Governor received members of the G-6 who came to felicitate with him over his appointment and confirmation as Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Chairman of the group Prof. Dimis Mailafiya said the group has been working for the APC and did a lot throughout his tenure as Governor of Plateau State carrying out research and other interventions on the background.
He said they were very optimistic of the victory of the APC at the Tribunal where the party will reclaim all its seats in Plateau State.
Mailafiya also told Lalong that they have no doubt that his appointment will bring more goodwill to Plateau State because he is a man that does not seek his personal interests alone.
Responding, Governor Lalong thanked them for the visit and assured that he will do his best in serving Nigeria and making Plateau proud.
