With only four days until the country’s gubernatorial elections, Plateau State Governor Simon Lalong bragged on Tuesday that the incumbent All Progressives Congress, APC, will maintain power in the state.
“By Sunday afternoon, APC would be named the victor of the gubernatorial race,” he bragged.
Lalong made the remarks while interacting with media at the NUJ Secretariat in Jos, the state capital, following an inspection of the newly renovated NUJ Council Secretariat.
“My candidate (Nentawe Yilwatda) will win the gubernatorial election on Saturday,” he stated.
“I had proclaimed wherever I went that Bola Tinubu would win the presidential votes, and it came to pass.”
He continued: “From what I had seen on ground, and the campaigns that traversed the 36 states and the FCT, I said Asiwaju will be the next president of Nigeria, and today he is the president.
“So, for Plateau, by afternoon on Sunday, APC will bring [in] another government in Plateau State.”
Lalong also assured that in the next two to three weeks, President Buhari will be in Plateau to commission some of the projects executed by his administration amongst which is the remodelling of the NUJ, Plateau Council.
