The race for the Plateau State Government House has already began with the declaration of interests by expected strong contenders in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) chapters in the state.
While, Dr. Golu, became the first to declare his interest in the PDP, Mr. Podar Johnson came behind to declare his interest under the APC.
You would recall that, this would be the second time, Podar Johnson, would be on the political track, contesting for the Number One seat on the Plateau.
Earlier, Podar had contested under the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), then led by President Muhammadu Buhari, before the party and others merged to form the All Progressives Congress (APC), which saw to the victory of President Buhari at the polls, alongside Sen. Jonah David Jang and others,
While on his part, Dr. Golu, a political scientist and holder of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in International Relations and Strategic Studies, was a Member/ Chief Whip of the Plateau State House of Assembly and Chairman House Committee on Land, (2011- 2015) and Member House of Representatives and Chairman House Committee on Legislative Budget and Research (2015-2019).
From records, REALITY can authoritatively state that, the duo, have formally notified and have expressed their interest to contest for the office of the Governor of Plateau State to their various political parties.
