ATIKU IS PUSHING GREATLY: APC MEMBERS LIVE AT PDP RALLY IN JOS
Also at the rally held at the Polo Ground
were Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the PDP Presidential Candidate, as well as Dr.
Bukola Saraki, Senate president and Director-General of the PDP campaign
organisation.
Also in the Plateau capital for the campaign
were Mr Uche Secondus, the National Chairman of the party, and his Deputy, Mr
Lyel Imoke.
A News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), correspondent
covering the event reports that the party big wigs were joined by Sen.
Jeremiah Useni, the governorship candidate of the party in the state, and his
running mate, Dr. James Dalok.
Also at the Polo Ground for the activity were
Sen. Jonah Jang, the immediate past governor of Plateau, Alhaji Ibrahim Mantu,
former Deputy Senate President, and Mr Fidelis Tapgun, a former Plateau
governor.
NAN recalls that Kwande had earned the wrath
of the APC in June 2018, when he followed Atiku to the Plateau State headquarters
of the PDP, when he came to the state to solicit for votes from the party’s
national delegates.
Miffed by Kwande’s fraternity with the rival
party, the APC chairman in the state, Latep Dabang, issued a query to him and
later warned him against repeating such.
Kwande, in his reply, had claimed that Atiku
had been a long standing friend, and told the APC that he would not abandon
such a close friend because of political reasons.
NAN reports that the event, which caused
massive gridlock along the Gadabiu-Faringada axis of the city, witnessed
traditional dances by women and youth groups that sang songs praising Atiku and
asking Nigerians to vote for him in the Feb. 16 presidential election.(NAN)
