Woman group, “Plateau Grassroots Women for Atiku/Muftwang,” has begun the mobilization of women, including the youth, across the 17 local government areas of the state to vote for the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar in next year’s general elections.
The leader of the group, Mrs Christy Nyam, who led her team to Ambassador Yahaya Kwande, in Jos, said there is the conviction that Atiku will fulfil his electoral promises based on his pedigree and experience.
“His choice of running mate is excellent and gives us assurance and a ray of hope. Atiku Abubakar has equally released a clear and promising roadmap for the economic recovery of the country. This simply means he is the most prepared presidential candidate in the country.
“We are going to mobilise and encourage women in this state to vote for him because he would tackle poverty, insecurity, unemployment and the infrastructural decay in the country,” she noted.
She stated that her group is set to storm every nook and cranny of the state to drum up support for the PDP candidate as well as the governorship candidate of the PDP in the state, Caleb Muftwang.
Also, the State Secretary, Plateau for the Atiku Movement Prof. Shedrach Best commended the women for their courage and determination in the quest to deliver Plateau to Atiku in 2023, adding that they have a key role to play in the journey ahead.
Prof. Best noted that Plateau State, being a stronghold of the PDP, will vote en masse for the presidential candidate and the governorship candidate in the state, Caleb Muftwang.
The elder statesman, Ambassador Yahaya Kwande commended the women for the bold steps taken to galvanise Plateau women for Atiku Abubakar.
