Last week the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Plateau was at the Plateau State High Court in Jos challenging the democratically illicit and

illegitimate, politically nefarious plan to exclude the party from the October 2021 local government elections on flimsy accounts of normal intra party squabbles.

It would have been discouraging for the PDP in Plateau to participate in the coming local polls going by what happened in the previous polls. But this is democracy and people will never give up because they want change. Anything can happen especially that the APC in the state is enmeshed in series of crisis following the outcome of its primary elections in many LGAs.

If PLASIEC and the state government can go this far to ridicule and disrespect the institution of representative democracy, the judiciary should not allow such to happen. The judiciary as the last hope of the society must live up to its expectation to correct the misnomer. This political attitude is strange to Plateau and must not be allowed to find its way as precedent.
