Gov Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau has promised that he would not interfere with the electoral process ahead of the Oct. 9 Local Government elections in the state.
Mutfwang said this on Wednesday, as the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Southern and Central zones of the state held rallies ahead of the election.
He said that the State’s Independent Electoral Commission (PLASIEC) had the task of conducting a free, fair and credible election across the 17 Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the state.
The governor, who urged the residents of the state to vote candidates of the PDP across board, said that his government had made significant impact in the last one year.
”We have pledged to restore the era of transparent elections in Plateau and this is why we are here to campaign for our candidates.
”Our government is making significant progress and will continue to meet the yearnings and aspirations of the people, particularly those in the rural areas.
”So, I call on you to vote all PDP candidates on Oct. 9; this way, development will spread to all parts of the state,” the governor said.
Mutfwang, who thanked the people of the two zones for overwhelmingly voting him as governor, said that the party would not fail them.
Also, the PDP Chairman in the state, Mr Chris Hassan, thanked the people of the zones for their support.
He thanked them for coming out in their numbers to welcome the governor.
Hassan reiterated that the PDP was committed to transforming lives and improving the living condition of the people across the state.(NAN)
