Plateau State governor, Caleb Mutfwang, has appealed to the people of the state to remain calm in the face of the appeal court judgement against the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state.
Mutfwang said in spite of the judgement against his government, he still has confidence in the integrity of men and women in the judiciary.
He stated this while addressing large party supporters and top government officials who came to receive him at the Yakubu Gowon Airport Heipang, Jos on his return from foreign trip.
He said, “I was following the judgement of the appeal court while I was away, and I know that Plateau people who actually voted massively for the PDP are not happy on those judgements.
“Let me appeal that in a contest, the wind can blow but does not mean it will bring you down. And I want to assure the people of Plateau State that the victory they gave us will be sustained. We have had some setbacks; we will be looking at it these few days to see what we will be able to do to remedy such situations.
“We are on top of the situations, and there is no cause for alarm. Our confidence in the judiciary has not been broken. We have confidence that the judiciary consist of men and women of integrity that will still do what is right when the time comes.
“I therefore want to appeal to our people to remain patient and calm, and that by the grace of God we will work together to ensure our victory is not taken away,” he said.
