The Chairman of Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Hon. Christopher Zakka Maikalangu, has charged the women, as well as the party supporters to vote for the presidential candidate of PDP, Abubakar Atiku in the forthcoming general election.

He also urged the women and his supporters to come out in mass to vote for the senatorial candidate of PDP in the FCT, Hon. Philip Tanimu Aduda, as well as the candidate of PDP representing AMAC/Bwari Federal Constituency at the National Assembly, Hon. Micah Y. Jiba during the polls.

Maikalangu, gave the charge while addressing the PDP women ward leaders in politics at a meeting held at Apo Resettlement town hall in Abuja on Tuesday.

He assured the women that his administration would not hesitate to put smiles on the faces of the women, and thanked them for their support in all ramifications.

He said “With the challenges we are facing now, we cannot give up, l am being denied some things, maybe because I am in PDP”.

While fielding questions from newsmen after the occasion, the Chairman frowned at votes buying during the polls.

Maikalangu, however, advised the entire residents of Abuja to shun any act capable of generating tension during the election.

Also speaking, the candidate of PDP representing AMAC/Bwari federal constituency at the National Assembly, Hon. Micah Y. Jiba said if elected into the House of Representatives for the second term, he would provide purposeful leadership for the people of his constituency.
