The Plateau chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Thursday in Jos congratulated the newly-elected leadership of the Association of Local Governments of Nigeria (ALGON) in the state.
Its Publicity Secretary, Mr Sylvanus Namang, in a statement lauded ALGON for conducting a hitch-free election on Jan. 5.
Namang stated that the leadership of APC in the state felt highly elated and vindicated by another exemplary show of democratic practice.
The publicity secretary said that such democratic practice was the hallmark of the ruling APC, which had entrenched firm democratic practice in the country.
“It is a thing of joy that the APC-dominated Plateau chapter of ALGON has elected Mr Alexander Naantuam the Executive Chairman of Shendam Local Government Area as its chairman.
“Other executive members are Vice-Chairman, Mr Shehu Usman, Chairman, (Jos North), Mr Henry Gotip, Chairman, Kanke Local Government Area, Secretary, and Mr Joseph Guluwa, Chairman, Bokkos Local Government Area, Treasurer.
“Elected as Financial Secretary is Mr Yakubu Izang, Chairman, Jos East and Public Relations Officer, Dr Ado Buba, Chairman, Wase Local Government Area.
“With this positive development, Mr Rufus Bature-led state APC executives are optimistic that the expected synergy between the state’s executive committee and ALGON will radically change the governance narrative in Plateau,’’ he stated. (NAN)
