Plateau State Rejected APC Because They Were Tired Of Suffering – Jonah Jang

An ex Governor of Plateau State, Jonah Jang has come out to explain that voters in the state refused to re-elect the All Progressives Congress after 7 years because the party inflicted hardship and suffering on the people.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, the people in Plateau simply decided to cast their ballots for the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Caleb Mutfwang, because they were tired of suffering.

He added that the 2023 election showed that more people are more politically enlightened enough to take their destinies into their hands, especially in choosing those who govern them.

His words, “We must confess that Plateau is endowed with people of character, capacity, will and strength to further the cause of the state. This keenly contested election had an array of some of Plateau’s finest crop of politicians and now that the people have decided in favour of the PDP, we rejoice with the winner.”

“The wild jubilation which accompanied the announcement of the result of the gubernatorial elections is instructive. Plateau people have had to experience untold hardship to come to terms with the fact of the need for a change to return home to the PDP which has had a tremendous impact on the lives of the people in the past.”

“A lot of sacrifices were made by Plateau people to give him the mandate to govern over them, some even paid the supreme price with their lives. All these sacrifices were borne out of the passion to see a new Plateau, the incoming governor therefore, cannot afford to fail his people – the Plateau people.”

“As part of his campaign promises, he pledged to carry everyone along, irrespective of tribe, religious affiliation, political inclination or other kinds of leanings. The time to prove to the world that he meant every word is now – be magnanimous in victory and be the leader everyone will love to have.”
