Mr Lalong
Plateau State Governor Simon Lalong has inaugurated his a fresh Campaign Council of the Rescue Administration’s re-election team for the purpose of achieving victory for the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the general election.
“You would recall that on the day of the flag-off of my re-election campaign on January 4 this year, I stressed our resolve to come out with a robust campaign council comprising men and women with track records of achievements, training, as well as political clout and experience to join the re-election train in order to have a resounding victory towards the March 2, 2019 gubernatorial elections,” he said at the launch on Tuesday.
Lalong congratulated those who have made the Campaign Council list and explained further that APC has clearly demonstrated its public acceptance, particularly during the House of Assembly bye-elections, as well as the recently conducted local government elections.
He promised to vigorously take the Rescue Message mantra to intra-family, neighbor-to-neighbor, ward-to-ward levels of the campaigns.
He said: “ The people at the grassroots ought to know from nothing else but the truth. They should be made to understand that those who are responsible for their present poverty woes today, destroyed the education of their children yesterday and looted the national and state treasuries yesterday are the same people seeking to replace APC and return to power to perpetuate the misery of the masses.
“The APC family and indeed the entire people of Plateau State owe us the duty of returning the party to power, failing which we will risk returning the state to the very people who had mortgaged her future and made it the sole inheritance of their own families,” he concluded
