Arrangements have been concluded by the All Progressive Congress (APC) gubernatorial candidate in Plateau State, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, to challenge the election result at the Election Petition Tribunal, saying he cannot allow the collective aspirations and interests of the people of Plateau state to be subverted.
The governorship candidate, in a statement signed by the spokesman of his campaign for group ” Generation Next Campaign Council” Shittu Bamaiyi quoted Nentawe as saying that he would be the last person to allow the people of Plateau state to be short-changed, in any way by its enemies.
According to him, the conspiracy theory perpetrated against him by two former Governors and one from outside the state, would certainly crash like a pack cards very soon, adding that he is ready to go the whole hog legally in protecting and promoting the collective will and interest of the state.
Nentawe stated that having gone into partnership and agreement with the people to chart a new course for the state, it is unacceptable to allow the so -called result of the governorship election to stand.
He stated that it is gladenning that some facts are beginning to emerge on how the people’s decision and choice was frustrated by an organised riggers from within and outside the state.
Nentawe cited the case of total vote discrepancies recorded in Mangu and Jos-South local government areas as well as the recovered BVA machines which were hitherto declared missing in Jos -North local government area.
The APC governorship Candidate described the so-called result of the election as a temporary setback, saying it has not dampened him but further strengthened and emboldened his mission and vision for the state.
Nentawe charged his teeming supporters to remain steadfast, resilient and unshaken as sooner or later they would reclaim their mandate.
