Valentine Adese (JP), The concerns of most voters in Plateau State have continued to be shaky, owing to the silence of the Plateau State Independent Electoral Commission’s inability to declare emphatically, whether the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) would participate in the planned and forthcoming Local Government Council elections, slated for 9 th October 2024, across the 17 Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Plateau State.
