Governor of Plateau State and Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council Simon Bako Lalong says the people of Plateau State and Nigerians at large will vote APC again because of its achievements in the area of peace, development and justice.
The Governor said this at the Bit Pol Cultural Festival in his village, N’yak, Shendam Local Government Area of Plateau State to usher in the new year.
He said the APC under his Rescue Administration has done a lot to restore peace to Plateau State and address previous acts of injustice, exclusion and division.
He cited the restoration of traditional stools and creation of new ones as a very important step taken by his government to emancipate the people and give them a sense of belonging in the affairs of the State.
He said such actions and the creation of the Peace Building Agency and opening up of room for dialogue, understanding and unity have made it possible for people to seek common grounds and stand against division and unpatriotic conduct.
While thanking his people for always supporting him and voting for the APC, Lalong said he was sure that such support will manifest in the polls when they vote to elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu as President as well as Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda as Governor of Plateau State to succeed him.
He said as the DG of the Tinubu/Shettima Campaign Council, he can guarantee that Tinubu and Nentawe will do justice to all Nigerians irrespective of their backgrounds.
Deputy Speaker House of Representatives Idris Wase said the people of Nyak should be very proud to have produced an illustrious son like Governor Lalong who is humble, patriotic and honest.
He said Lalong is a leader who knows the road to victory and success and deserves to be supported by not only his kinsmen but the people of Plateau State as he has the connections and capacity to protect their interests in national politics.
APC Gubernatorial candidate Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda while assuring the people of Nyak that he will continue with the legacies of Governor Lalong and ensure that peace and stability persists in Plateau State, said the people of Plateau State will witness greater things as he builds in the legacies of the Lalong Rescue Administration.
Nentawe said he will continue to support the Bit Pol Cultural Festival as well as make sure that the people of Plateau State become more united and prosperous.
Plateau State Algon Chairman Hon. Alex Naantuam said the Pol Unity and Cultural Festival has continued to bring in people from around the country every year which is a testament to the unity and progress that exists within the Nyak community as well as collaboration with their sons and daughters.
Chairman of the Pol Unity and Cultural Association (PUCA) Audu Inuwa appreciated Governor Lalong for giving the community a sense of pride through his exploits in politics and performance as Governor of Plateau State, Chairman Northern Governors Forum and Director General of the Tinubu/Shettima Campaign Council.
He said the Pol Unity and Cultural Association has been strengthened with the support and goodwill of Governor Simon Lalong.
