Lalong Inaugurates Senatorial Campaign Council

Plateau State Governor Simon Lalong has inaugurated his Campaign Council with great optimism that the APC will win convincinly in the forthcoming elections in the zone as well as the entire state and country at large. 

While performing the ceremony at the Campaign Office in Shendam, the Zonal Party Headquarters on Thursday, Lalong said the APC has performed excellently in the zone since 2015, which will be consolidated in 2023.

He expressed appreciation to the people of the southern zone for giving him an opportunity to serve them over the years.

"I do not take this opportunity lightly because it shows the trust and confidence you have in me.

"This has again reaffirmed the kind of support you have given me within the last seven years as Governor of Plateau State.

"Such support has not only given me courage and confidence to serve the people of the State, but also attracted the attention of Northern Governors who made me their Chairman.

"Even the APC at the National Level and indeed our Presidential Candidate Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu have seen your goodwill and decided to appoint me the DG of the Presidential Campaign Council."

Lalong said without them honouring him at home, no one outside will recognize him and even give him any assignment. 

"However, it is very important that all our members work together to deliver not only the senatorial seat, but all the House of Assembly and House of Representatives candidates of our party.

"We have done it since 2015 and this coming election in 2023 shall not be different.

"This is because we have done our best to bring home the dividends of democracy to our people which are very evident and tangible", he said.

He used the opportunity to assure the people of the zone that as DG of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, the party will win the elections at all levels and retain power.
