MUTFWANG THE 2023 DRIVING TOOL TOWARDS THE ACTUALIZATION OF THE BOTCHED 2015 DU DYNASTY DECLARATION. It could be recalled that it was Da David Jonah Jang the former Governor of Plateau state who imposed his kinsman the late GNS Pwajok as the standard bearer of the PDP to build a dynasty for his family, Unfortunately for Jang the dynasty was vehemently rejected by the Plateau people throwing it overboard like a pack of cards, reasons being that the Du dynasty declaration defies the principle of zoning and political cohesiveness amongst the people. Jang, in a wild goose chase is at it again by devising a means of actualizing his dreams in 2023 Governorship election by giving the Plateau people another turn of events when they woke up with a big surprise, resting their hands on their jawswondering the broad day light robbery and the murder David Jonah Jang orchestrated on the democratic process that took place at Langfield resort where credible candidates in the likes of Alfre

PRESS STATEMENT: LABOUR PARTY DISTANCES SELF FROM FORGED AND FICTITIOUS LETTERS The National Chairman of the Labour Party, LP, Barrister Julius Abure and the Plateau State Governorship candidate, Dr. Patrick Dakum, have distanced themselves from the deceptive and forged letters being circulated by the desperate Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, e-boys and rumour peddlers all round the state alleging support and stepping down for the incompetent and uncertained governorship candidate of their party. All LP faithful and the general public should disregard such baseless and concocted lies from the already exited PDP from the contest.  The LP is not ignorant of the fact that the PDP is on a wild goose chase which its juggernauts are fully aware by virtue of the already existing  courts' judgment with deadly missiles waiting for it at the tribunal and others to quash all their victories at the National Assembly elections. Due to their penchant for bad governance and total disre

PDP FAILED HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STEPHEN MWAN WUYEP CAN'T BE AN OBIDIENT MEMBER. The Dakum/Pwajok Plateau State Labour Party Governorship and Deputy Governorship Campaign Council came across a trending video of a press conference at the Mutfwang/Piyo PDP Governorship and Deputy Governorship Campaign Council Secretariat on Thursday 16th March, 2023 where a non existent "Obidient Support Groups" endorsed the PDP candidates. We are not surprised at the desperation of the Mutfwang/ Piyo Campaign Council at hoodwinking the people of Plateau State into believing that the Dakum/ Pwajok LP Governorship and Deputy Governorship candidates are in talks with the PDP. The LP has the support of the Nigerian voters, particularly the young population who see the PDP and the APC as leprous political parties which destroyed the socio economic features of the country in the last 24 years and consumed the future leaving them jobless and directionless ,

Supreme Court Vindicates Dakum As Legitimate Candidate of LP in Plateau State. The Supreme Court on Wednesday in Abuja dismissed an appeal brought before it by a Labour Party (LP) governorship aspirant in Plateau State, Ambassador Yohanna Margif, challenging the nomination of the candidate of the party, Dr Patrick Dakum. The appeal was thrown out by Justice John Inyang Okoro following its dramatic withdrawal by the appellant, Margif, upon discovery that the matter has become statute barred. Counsel to the appellant, Mr Opeyemi George Ojo, had pleaded in his arguments with the Apex Court to invoke Section 22 of the Supreme Court Act to take over the matter and resolve all disputed issues in the interest of justice... The persuasion by the appellant was *UNANIMOUSLY REJECTED* *By the 5-man panel of Justices of the Supreme Court* on the ground that conditions precedents for the Court to invoke section 22 of the Supreme Court Act were not met. *Congratulations Hon. Chief Dr. Pa

PLATEAU GUBERNATORIAL ELECTIONS 2023: THE RACE TO LITTLE RAYFIELD By Gurumwal George Longjan. There is no analysis that I haven’t seen on the three major contenders of the forthcoming Plateau gubernatorial elections. Ranging from the highly cerebral to the intellectually deficient beer parlour ones.  I’ve seen posts that are clearly obviously propaganda and I’ve seen write-ups containing facts and half truths.  Furthermore there are those supporting their candidates because they genuinely believe that their candidate will take Plateau state to greater heights.  Additionally there are those rendering their support because the candidate is from their tribe or the candidate attended the same school as them or they like how the candidate looks and those who hope to get an opportunity to milk the state dry.  Amongst the three major contenders, all are credible. All have managed important offices/positions. All have their strengths and weaknesses, including their positive and neg

With a Dazzling Gaze on the Sky, “Where Do We Go From Here?” Nigerians  Cry Aloud More than at any other time in the history of Nigeria, the country's security, stability, and freedom has been threatened, endangered, and tampered with in the last few years. Terrorism and banditry have regularly increased in the North, the Middle Belt, and some parts of the country's southern regions. It is clear on the faces of ordinary Nigerians that they are helpless, having faced continuous insecurity challenges. Nigerians are helpless in all facets of life.  First, they have no direct access to people in authority when their lives are endangered. Second, they have few resources or the means of reporting their experiences to media houses and even the international community. So, they are voiceless and helpless. Last, there is a limit to how they can defend themselves when attacked by terrorists or bandits. As of early 2023, there are Nigerians in different states across the count
