As the All Progressives Congress APC- Presidential Campaign train entered Jos, Plateau State on Saturday, President Bola Tinubu has assured Nigerians that the forthcoming polls will be peaceful.
He particularly enjoined the people of the State to go out and cast their vote with full confidence.
President Tinubu gave the assurance while speaking at the North-Central presidential campaign rally in Jos, Plateau State.
Tinubu urged the electorate to exercise their franchise by voting with their Permanent Voter Card (PVCs).
“That’s your weapon to prosperity; that’s your roadmap. Use it effectively. Use it to vote APC,” he said.
“Don’t worry about vagabonds. Don’t worry about purveyors of violence. We will take care of you. There will be peaceful elections. Go out and vote; vote for the candidates of the APC.” He said
The President also promised to rebuild communities in Plateau State that were affected by the recurring incidents of violence l and ensure the return of displaced victims.
Tinubu who apologized for not visiting the affected communities during a visit to the state in April said that he was briefed of the occurrences by the state Governor, Mr. Caleb Mutfwang.
“When I last visited the other time, I was limited to the airport. Forgive me if you didn’t see me in the hinterland, but I saw the devastation. I got the report from the governor. I saw horror in the faces of our people.
“But since then, that has changed. We are forging together. It is now that we can rebuild and I assure those displaced that we will rebuild your communities.
“We will rebuild your communities, and we will bring you back to your community. I have directed all the security agencies to take decisive action and sustain peace and stability on the Plateau.”
