2023: Choice of female gubernatorial running mate in Plateau, perfect – PDP group

A group known as Concerned Plateau Patriotic PDP Supporters has described the selection of a female, Mrs Josephine Piyo as the running mate of the PDP governorship Candidate Barr. Caleb Mutfwang as the best and perfect decision.

Secretary of the group, Hon. Peter John in a press statement issued to Journalists in Jos on Tuesday call on all PDP stakeholders to unite and take over power come 2023 from the failed APC administration in the State.

“We the Concerned Plateau Patriotic People’s Democratic Party PDP is calling on all PDP founding fathers, stakeholders, elected Officials, former governors, Ministers, former and serving National Assembly Members, Serving and Former State Assembly Members, Former Commissioners, Local Government Chairmen, party officials from State, Local government and wards Levels, Former Appointees of all level and all PDP Members in the State to Please stand united to take over leadership from the fail government of the confused APC come 2023.

“We are also appealing that all candidates of the party from the Presidential, Governorship, Senatorial, House of Representatives and House of Assembly should be supported by all members of the party at all level to keep our differences and grievances aside for “united we stand, divided we fall”.

The group said Plateau People and Nigerians are now looking and depending on the PDP to salvage the nation from the present predicament.

“The PDP lost in 2015 and 2019 for lack of unity, and we must keep our grievances and personal interest aside and be united for the interest of the State and the nation

“We are disturbed that by the turns of event, that after the successful and transparent primaries of the party that produce flag bearers ahead of the 2023 general elections and successful nomination of the running mate for the governorship, we should be strategizing and galvanising our energies towards the campaigns ahead of us, but very unfortunate that we are still divided along religious and tribal differences instead of quality of candidates.

“We strongly want to advise that instead of channeling our energy towards writing petitions to Abuja, we should rather focus on uniting ourselves to take over power. Whether COCIN, Catholic, ECWA or whatever denomination we are all one before God and from Plateau, so we should not replace quality candidate with denomination for the job of salvaging Plateau state from the failed APC administration.

“PDP members shouldn’t make another mistake by not being united like what happened in 2015 and 2019, where many worked against the party because Plateau people are with us now and we must not disappoint them.

“We are the opposition party and there is every need to ensure that we support our Gubernatorial candidate and his running mate and all other candidates of the Party from across all levels.

“We are, however, appealing to all those who may have ignorantly written any Petition against our amiable Running mate to our powerful and winning indefatigable Governorship Candidate Barr. Caleb Mutfwang to immediately withdraw for the interest of Peace, success and victory of the PDP come 2023.
