Mutfwang has described the rumours as a ploy by mischief makers to create confusion and cast doubt on his loyalty to the PDP.
According to a statement by Gyang Bere, the director of press and public affairs to Mutfwang, the governor has dismissed the defection rumour. The statement condemned the report, which falsely depicted the governor’s image along with APC governors. The governor then reiterated his commitment to the people’s service under the PDP umbrella.
Vanguard reported that the governor reassured the PDP members in Plateau and the North Central Zone that engagement with critical stakeholders in resolving the internal crisis within the PDP in the zone was ongoing. Mutfwang reaffirmed his commitment to collaborate with President Bola Tinubu-led federal government in the interest of Plateau state.
The Governor’s denial of the defection rumours is not surprising, given his previous statements on the matter. However, the persistence of the rumours suggests that there may be some underlying issues within the PDP or between Mutfwang and other politicians.
TimesNow.com.ng earlier reported that Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang has approved N70,000 as the new minimum wage for workers in the state.
Stephen Gadong, the head of service in the state, announced the development in a statement on Thursday, November 14.
According to the statement, the N70,000 new minimum wage approval was the governor’s demonstration to improve workers’ welfare in the state.
