PLATEAU APC ELECTION, DR. NENTAWE YILWATDA EMERGERS VICTORIOUS 

By Justin Jattim

Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda has been declared winner of the just concluded All Progressive Congress (APC) Primary Election held at Langsfield, Rayfield Jos on Friday having scored 803 votes to beat three other aspirants. 

After an intensive yet unfair election to most aspirants, a walkout of disagreement to an unjust election took place. Unhappy aspirants with no comment staged a walkout on the electoral process with some withdrawals to participate in what was seen as a “Rigged” electioneering process.

According to the Chairman of the Electoral Committee Hon. Habu Ajiya, Nine Aspirants were in the race but five Aspirants later sent their letters of withdrawal from the contest. They are; Sunday Garba Biggs, Dr. Sarpiya Danyaro, Sen. Hezekiah Dimka, and Dr. Patrick Dakum. Surv. Fitika who seemed joyous rather than dreadful took to stage and gave his unflinching support on behalf of the Ngas nation. Surv. Fitka was the only aspirant who stepped down in the race giving Hon. Nentawe the APC gubernatorial candidate his full support and Allegiance.

According to Ajiya, Four of the Aspirants participated in the election and they are, Garba Pwul SAN, Prof. Sunny Tyoden, Dr. Nentanwe Yilwatda and  Hon. Victor David Dimka.

Final results of the primaries is as follows:

Dr. Nentawe Yilwada - 803

David Victor Dimka - 7

Hezekiah Dimka - 6

Garba Pwul SAN - 2

Sonni Tyoden - 25

By Justin Jattim  A non-profit organization dedicated to the empowerment, education, and economic upliftment of vulnerable women and youth impacted by banditry, kidnapping, and insurgency in Nigeria, the Scarlet Cord Initiative, has extended its work to Gumel in Kachia, southern Kaduna. There, it held a two-day holistic empowerment programme for about 100 traumatized women. The programme included skills training, mentorship, trauma psycho-support, and advocacy. The event, which took place in a vibrant hall in Gora, began with a simple ball of yarn passed from hand to hand, weaving a visible web of connection among the 100 selected widows. These women shared the experience of losing their husbands to violent attacks. This was not a craft lesson, but the opening act of a profound tra...
