Plateau LG Polls: Kanam people will vote APC- Rep Gagdi

Ahead of the forthcoming local government elections in Plateau State, the lawmaker representing the Pankshin/Kanke/Kanam constituency in the House of Representatives, Yusuf Gagdi said his constituents will vote for the All Progressives Congress, APC because of the mark the party has made there.

The APC also received 15,000 decampees from the ruling PDP in the State.

He also called on the electoral umpire, the Plateau State Independent Electoral Commission, PLASIEC, to ensure that it conducts credible polls that would be free and fair to all.

Gagdi stated this at the APC campaign flagoff for the October 9th, 2024, local government elections in Kanam LGA of the State.

He said, “The essence of this gathering is to show Plateau people that Kanam LGA is ready for the upcoming elections.

“As long as elections are conducted, nobody can rig the polls in Kanam.

“Our people are our missiles, through their votes, they will attack whosoever is coming their way.

On why Kanam people should vote for the APC, the lawmaker said, “Because all the roads in Kanam were constructed by me and I’m a product of APC.

“We challenge the PDP-led administration in the state to come out and tell my constituents what it has done for them in its over one year in office.

“The PDP-led administration in this state has received a lot of money from the federal government but there is nothing to show for it, especially in my constituency”, he maintained.

“We want to call on PLASIEC to conduct free and fair elections.

“And if that is done, I’m sure the people of Kanam would take their destinies into their hands.

He urged residents to remain calm and law-abiding before, during and after the elections.
