 The Plateau State Chapter of the People's Democratic Party has raised the alarm of what he described as a grand plan by the Plateau State Independent Electoral Commission to exclude the party from participating in the October 9th local government elections in the state. Now, Sepulchre of the Plateau State PDP Catechical Committee, Patrick Obu, who announced this to reporters in JAWS, expressed disgust over what he described as unsubstantiated reasons and vowed to resist any attempt to hinder the party. Obu maintained that the Catechical Committee was drafted to the state following a court judgment that ordered a fresh state congress to elect officers of the party and on resumption. The committee invited the commission to participate in its upcoming local government party parameters but the party did not show up.
