The chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Plateau state chapter, Latep Dabang said the sports minister, Solomon Dalung who hails from the state, has never attended any function of the party since he was appointed minister.

Premium Times reports that Dabang made this known Monday, May 21 at the party secretariat in Jos, during a press conference where he briefed journalists on the activities of the party.

Dabang said: “The minister of youth and sport development, Barrister Solomon Dalung, has never attended any of our meetings since he was appointed minister in spite of several invitations to our meetings.

“During the ward congresses, the minister was in Daura, in Kastina state. If the president of the country, President Buhari, can go to his party ward to participate in the congresses, I wonder what the minister was doing in the country home of the president.”

The APC chairman also said the minister did not attend the just concluded state congress of the party held last Saturday in Jos.

The APC state congress in Plateau state were held under tight security. The state governor, Simon Lalong, and his deputy, Sonni Tyoden, participated in the congresses.

Dalung could not be reached for his reaction on the accusations leveled against him by the APC chairman in Plateau state.

He did not return calls and did not respond to text messages sent to him via his mobile telephone about 24 hours ago.

The state chairman of the party, Latep Dabang, made the statement on Sunday, April 15, when reassuring all governorship aspirants of a level playing ground ahead of the APC primary election.

The APC leader said despite the standing ovation Lalong received from stakeholders when he declared his intention to seek a second term, the governor will not be given an automatic ticket.

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove...
