“Our priority is to salvage Plateau State and Nigeria from its present insecurity, economic hardship and also tackle the welfare of youth and women.

“We will displace APC and PDP to become internally Displaced Parties in Plateau because they have destroyed their parties with imposition and they are complete failures from top to bottom”, Mandim said.

He added that the government of NNPP will focus on developing tourism to salvage the State from being permanently a civil service State depending on federal allocation every month.
