APC went on the displace PDP at the national level. In Plateau State, APC also got substantial support of voters over allegations that PDP had jettisoned the zoning arrangement. It was also alleged that PDP leadership ensured that a particular tribe in the Northern Zone enjoyed juicy appointments at both the federal and state levels. But, shortly after APC formed government in Plateau, conflicts of interest in terms of appointments into various positions equally emerged among the different parties that fused into APC to clinch power from PDP.
