Peoples Democratic Party, PDP governorship candidate in Plateau State, Barrister Caleb Mutfwang has given hint on how the party would protect its vote from alleged rigging plots by the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Speaking to a crowd of party faithful on his return to Jos, the state capital following his investiture with the certificate of return, Mutfwang also assured party faithful that his choice of a running mate would come without rancour.

He also appealed to rivals for the PDP ticket to join hands with him saying that he would work with them as a team towards the goal of ensuring victory for the party in the election.

Addressing the crowd who besieged the airport despite the rain to welcome him, Mutfwang said:

“The presentation of the certificate of return by the National Secretariat of the party marks the formal end of the emergence of the candidate of the party and that means that the party has made a statement that this is the person we are forwarding to INEC.

“As we know, INEC cannot disqualify a candidate, so we have settled the matter of candidature. It is more gratifying that there has been no petition or agitation since our emergence; this shows how united our party is going into this upcoming general election. I feel highly honoured to be bequeathed this responsibility by our party in this State, and I take this responsibility seriously by the grace of God,d we will lead our party to victory…

“Let me summarise our intention; we will bring genuine leadership, peace, and prosperity to Plateau State; this in a nutshell is what we want to do by the time the people of Plateau give us the mandate come 2023; and by the grace of God, peace will return to Plateau. I want you to know that APC knows that it will not win the 2023 governorship election unless it rigs, but that will not happen, because we are going to protect our votes; we will follow them bumper to bumper, and by the grace of God our victory will be a landslide.

“Nobody should deceive you that our victory would be stolen; because those who would attempt that act are not yet born; God is with us and by His grace after our victory, there won’t be any petition… I appeal to those who lost in the various primary elections, wherever there was a misunderstanding, it would be corrected; we will make sure that we all work as a team. The umbrella is large, whosoever comes under, we shall move together; so there is no need for any quarrel amongst us,” Mutfwang, the PDP governorship candidate said.

On the choice of his running ahead of the deadline given by INEC, Mutfwang was optimistic saying, “As I was chosen without any rancour, so shall our Deputy Governor emerge without rancour.”
