I am running for single term – Useni

The Plateau state governorship aspirant under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Lieutenant General Jeremiah Useni (retired), has said he will run for only a single term in office if elected as governor in the coming general election. Useni said his decision is in line with the traditional zoning arrangement on the Plateau which he will not want to truncate. The PDP guber aspirant stated this on Tuesday at the campaign flag-off in the state held in Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau. He said, “I seek to restore Plateau within a four-year period, a single term in line with the zoning arrangement specially adopted for the purpose of the 2019 general elections. “Let no one be left in doubt, we are setting out on this mission, prepared, with a vision as we have appraised the Plateau challenge. We are driven by a conscious and patriotic zeal to address the ills that have bedevilled the state in the last three and half years: my contract with the Plateau people is to restore what is lost”, Useni said. On his part, Senator Jonah Jang who is also the immediate past governor of the state, urged the Plateau people to vote out the All Progressive Congress (APC), at all levels saying that the Buhari government has impoverished the country. Jang told the PDP to get ready to return to government house as even God has rejected the APC, he said. Kingsley Chukwuka, Jos
