Governor Simon Lalong of Plateau State bared his mind on the National Leader of All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju  Bola Ahmed Tinubu  recently: “To the party, their absence did not make any difference. If a leader was not there and he has said he was not there because of ill-health, we have prayed that God will heal him. We have finished our campaign. You saw what happened at the grand finale. We are not in doubt that APC will win the election in Ondo.”

 “Their absence was not a problem. We explained their absence. They sent in their apologies. You heard what happened there. As far as we are concerned, the President who is the leader of the party was at the rally. The national chairman was also there. As far as we are concerned, everybody was there.”

 “It is other parties that are scared of the APC and not the APC being scared of other parties. We have come to thank the President for going to Ondo for the grand finale rally.”
