The All Progressives Congress (APC) has promised to hold a peaceful presidential rally on Saturday in Jos, the capital of Plateau.
Mr Samuel Jatau, Chairman of the Local Organising Committee (LOC) of the event, said this during a news conference on Thursday in Jos.
Jatau, who is also the Secretary to the Plateau Government, said that the party, in collaboration with security agencies, had put modalities in place for a peaceful and successful exercise.

“The forthcoming presidential rally will be peaceful, orderly and issue- based.
“We have instructed our supporters to conduct themselves in a manner that will not breach the peace of the state,” he said.
He called on all stakeholders and residents of the state to cooperate with the party to ensure a successful exercise.
The LOC chairman, however, called on party supporters to turn out en masse to welcome President Bola Tinubu to the state.
He particularly called on party supporters to shun violence, thuggery, and acts that could disrupt public peace.
Jatau appealed to residents and motorists to cooperate with traffic officials who would be deployed to manage vehicular movements during the exercise.
