Presidential polls: Benue South endorses Atiku

Stakeholders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Benue South Senatorial District, have endorsed the Presidential candidate of the party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, ahead of the Saturday election.

Endorsement of Atiku by the Benue South PDP Stakeholders as contained in a statement by Paul Mumeh, took place in Otukpo Thursday at a meeting held for that purpose in the home of former Senate President, David Mark.

According to the statement, the PDP stakeholders resolved to vote for Abubakar on the premise that their interest will be better served under his presidency.

They distanced themselves from those campaigning for candidates of other political parties, saying, they cannot be faithful members of the PDP and be seen to be working for candidates of other political parties.

They therefore urged all party members not to be distracted by the antics of a few but should go all out to vote for candidates of the PDP in the February 25, 2023 and March 11, 2023 elections.

Addressing the stakeholders drawn for the nine local government areas making up Benue South Senatorial District, Senator Mark told them to be faithful to PDP “because it makes no sense for people to be jumping from one party to the other.”

He said political parties are vehicles for achieving ones political ambition that must of a necessity be held sacrosanct obeying the rules and regulations.

Senator Mark frowned at those who jump from one party to the other saying “they are people without conviction or do not know what they really want”.

Current Benue south Senator Abba Moro urged the party faithful to remain steadfast with the PDP.
