Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, has pledged unprecedented electoral support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the January 16, 2027 presidential election, saying the state is prepared to reward the President for what he described as efforts to rescue Nigeria from economic difficulties and put the country on the path to recovery.
Mutfwang made the declaration at the All Progressives Congress (APC) North-Central presidential campaign rally held at the Zaria Road Stadium in Jos, where he likened the state of the country when Tinubu assumed office to a patient in the intensive care unit, saying the President’s policies were beginning to yield positive results.
Addressing the President and party supporters, the governor said, “You met Nigeria in an intensive care unit. You have ministered policies, and now we are recovering.”
He described Tinubu as a friend of Plateau and the North-Central region, noting that his administration had demonstrated commitment to the state through interventions in road infrastructure, healthcare, security and other critical sectors.
Mutfwang said the state was determined to reciprocate the President’s interventions through massive votes in the forthcoming election.
“I want to assure you that we on the Plateau have decided that for the 2027 election, it is Tinubu or nothing. We have mobilised to deliver you unprecedentedly. We will always be grateful for what you have done.
“The time has come for us to pay you back come the 16th of January, 2027,” he added.
The governor also commended the President’s interventions in the security sector, expressing optimism about ongoing efforts to tackle insurgency and restore peace to affected communities.
He, however, appealed for special federal intervention to facilitate the return of displaced residents to their ancestral homes, stressing the need to rebuild affected communities and restore the livelihoods of those forced to flee their homes.
On infrastructure, Mutfwang appealed to Tinubu to support the completion and upgrading of the Zaria Road Stadium, which he said was initiated about 40 years ago, into an international-standard sporting facility.
He also highlighted his administration’s efforts to ease transportation difficulties through the addition of more buses to the state’s public transport system.
Responding to the governor’s appeals, President Tinubu assured Plateau residents that the Federal Government would work with the state government to rebuild communities affected by insurgency, while reiterating his commitment to national unity and shared prosperity.
The rally was attended by Vice President Kashim Shettima, Senate President Godswill Akpabio, wife of the President, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, APC National Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda, other party leaders and supporters from across the North-Central region.
