Plateau’ll vote for Jonathan –Jang

Despite the burn­ing down of president Good­luck Jonathan campaign vehicles in Jos, Plateau State Governor and Chairman of the Ni­gerian Governors’ Forum (NGF), Jonah Jang, has assured the president that the state would vote for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the forth­coming elections.

Jang stated this during a reception held for the PDP governorship candidate in the forthcoming elections, Sena­tor Gyang Pwajok, at the new Government House, Little Rayfield, Jos at the weekend. Pwajok had just returned from Lagos where he received the party’s flag.
The governor said: “Plateau is PDP and the people of the state would continue to support the party. The PDP shall form the next Federal Government, PDP will win the governor­ship election in Plateau State this year, and we will do it by God’s guidance and by our clean minds, we shall cam­paign hard to ensure victory for our party at all levels.
“PDP has done well in trans­forming the nation and would do more if voted into office in February.”
Also speaking on the occa­sion, Pwajok expressed opti­mism that the PDP’s chances of winning the election were high, saying he was over­whelmed by the turn out of people who came to the airport to welcome him back home from Lagos where he was pre­sented the party’s flag as the governorship candidate of the state.
