Lalong said his visit is an opportunity for further engagements with stakeholders while also sensitising the people on the goodwill of the party in the upcoming polls.

Lalong charged the citizens to vote for APC at all levels and not to fall prey to the gimmicks of the opposition, saying, “they are making promises without any record of performance”.

On his part, the Chairman of Shendam Local Government Council, Miskoom Alex Naantuam, pledged that the stakeholders would vote for APC at all levels because of the quality of candidates and their capacity to deliver.
