Former Member of House of Representative, from
Mikang, Shendam and Quanpan Federal constituency in Plateau state, Hon. George
Daika expressed concerned over the flagrant abuse of power by the APC led
government.
Speaking to Journalist immediately after a stakeholders
meeting in Jos which held on Friday 10 2017 at the party start secretariat. Hon.
George Daika said, “Well, regarding the meeting, it is a usual routine that has
to do with the caucus in the sake of the party and other committees.
Successfully we were able to adopt and endorse unanimously, His Excellency Sir
Fidelis Tapgun as the chairman of the elder’s forum, with Barr. Justina Vrengle
as his secretary.
Daika said, “We did it unanimously based on
the understanding and qualities we have seen in them and the need for them to
further strengthen the party. On the issue of INEC, well, the injunction is
being given by the court. I didn’t go there but I was told that the judge
addressed both parties and told INEC clearly that they shouldn’t conduct the
Re-Run election and if they do, then I will see the recklessness in INEC, which
means they don’t seem to obey the rule of law, and it is something that is very
common with the present administration of people who came with change agenda
but don’t seem to adhere to any other norms and values guiding our nation,
which is quite sad.
He said “I heard that the governor [Simon
Lalong], during a campaign in Langtang South, Mabudi, directed INEC to go
ahead and conduct election or else he will declare an APC candidate a winner,
which sounds so funny, myopic and childish and I don’t expect that from a
leader. I want to at this point call on the entire PDP members, our teeming
supporters and well wishers to be calm and law abiding, whatever happens, even
to the contrary they should not react and should remain peaceful. I also call
on the security agencies to be mindful of constitutional provisions and the
legal backing”.
speaking on what the people of Plateau State
should expect from the PDP being the opposition. Hon. Daika said, “First and
Foremost, the people of Plateau State and other Nigerians are yearning, by
calling on PDP to come back to power because they are really tired and they are
in abject poverty. This present administration has further
impoverished people that they find it difficult to get food to eat, even a
square meal a day and death toll rises all over, and also unemployment rate is
very high.
He Said “Government is meant to serve the people,
to provide people with all the necessary facilities and amenities such as
infrastructures. So people are really tired and are just praying for 2019,
which to me might be too far but too close because it is up to the people to
decide by ballot, either they still prefer PDP or APC, but am sure with the
unity of purpose with what is happening in PDP today, we are making a very good
impact on the lives of the people and we are making progress which at the end
of the day PDP might emerge victorious
Commenting on the preparedness of PDP towards the
forth coming local government election, he said “We are waiting for the PLASIEC
to set up the time table; if the PLASIEC is ready then we will start
mobilization. I can see clearly that Plateau people have had enough from
APC, and by God’s grace, with the good work PDP will still emerge winner of the
coming LG election.
