Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate has assured the people of Plateau state that he would restore peace and revamp the economy of the state if voted into office.

He made the promise during the presidential rally at the Rwang Pam Township Stadium in Jos on Tuesday.

“Now, the people of Plateau State, it is a homecoming for me today. It is homecoming because I have been a resident of this state for the past 28 years. We have promised that we will restore peace in this state. We will also restore and revamp the economy of this state.

“We will also make sure that this state is connected to neigbouring states as far as road infrastructures are concerned. APC has neglected all roads connecting Plateau with other states in the country. We promise because you are a PDP state,” Atiku told the crowd.

The rally had in attendance party bigwigs, including the running mate Ifeanyi Okowa, the National Chairman Iyorcha Ayu; the Director-General of the Presidential Campaign Council, Aminu Tambuwal, and members of states and national assembly among others.

The presidential campaign team had earlier visited the Gbong Gwom Jos Da Jacob Gyang Buba in his palace as well as the Anglican Bishop of Jos Most Reverend Benjamin Kwashi, and Sheikh Yahaya Jengri.
