Stakeholders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Gyel District of Jos Local Government Area (LGA) of Plateau, have commended Gov. Caleb Mutfwang, over the completed and ongoing road projects across various communities in the state.
Some of the stakeholders spoke during the party’s congress of the district on Monday in Jos.
Mr Dalyop Mancha, a two-term member of the Plateau State House of Assembly, particularly thanked the governor for constructing roads and other projects in Gyel and environs.
Mancha, who represented Jos South Constituency in the assembly, also thanked the governor for appointing some residents of the district into key political positions in the state.
“Gyel district is part of Jos metropolis, but it has never had this good in terms of infrastructural development like under the current administration.
“We are grateful to the governor for revisiting some of the abandoned road projects and commenced the construction of new ones in our communities.
“This administration has constructed and rehabilitated the DB Zang Junction-stadium road, building material-Bukuru Low-cost-Nyango road, the Nyango bridge, among many other projects within Gyel.
“Also, beyond key appointments from Gyel, we recognise the several developmental interventions by this administration that have direct impact on residents of district and neighboring communities,”he said.
Also speaking, Mr Joseph Dangyang, the former Chairman of Jos South LGA, called on the people of the district to support the governor to succeed.
Dangyang, who urged the governor to contest again in 2027, stressed that his policies were gradually lifting Plateau residents out of poverty.
According to him, the governor has excelled in road infrastructure, education, transportation, agriculture, rural electrification, and other critical sectors.
“We, the PDP stakeholders in Gyel, reaffirm our solidarity and deepest appreciation to Gov. Mutfwang for his remarkable transformation of the state.
“We are proud to identify with our dynamic governor whose people-centred leadership is anchored on transparency, inclusiveness, accountability, and service to humanity
“Since 1999, Gyel has not had it so good like during the tenure of Gov. Jonah Jang and the current administration, and so, we will support the governor to succeed,”he said.
Responding, Mr Davou Jatau, the Commisioner for Transportation in the state, thanked the residents of Gyel community for their support.
Jatau, a native Gyel, said that the Mutfwang-led administration remained committed to improving the welfare of Plateau people.
“Today, with as low as N200, you can move to any part of Jos and environs using the metro buses.
“Aside the quality roads, this administration has revived the train mass transit; the health, education, agriculture and other critical sectors have been revived as well.
“Only recently, the governor has inaugurated a new market in Bukuru and plans are underway to build more in order to boast the economy,”he said.
Jatau urged the community to continue praying and cooperating with the governor and his deputy to deliver more democratic dividends across the state. (NAN) (www.nannews.ng)
