Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang has sworn in five newly appointed commissioners and inaugurated the Governing Councils of key tertiary institutions in Plateau State, reaffirming his administration’s commitment to effective governance, accountability, and development.

Speaking at the swearing-in ceremony held at the Victoria Gowon Hall, New Government House, Little Rayfield, Jos, on Tuesday, Mutfwang emphasized that the appointments were not privileges but responsibilities that demand diligence, transparency, and efficiency.

He urged the new officials to align with his administration’s vision to reposition the state for sustainable progress.

“In the last 20 months, the people of Plateau State have placed their trust in us to rebuild, restore, and reposition our beloved state. Your appointment is not a privilege but a responsibility to serve with diligence, transparency, and accountability,” the governor stated.

As part of ongoing governance reforms, Mutfwang announced the merger of the Ministries of Secondary and Tertiary Education into a single Ministry of Education to streamline operations and enhance service delivery.

Additionally, he unveiled the newly created Ministry of Livestock Development, Veterinary Services, and Fisheries, aimed at strengthening the management of the livestock sector and addressing emerging challenges.

The governor urged the new commissioners and governing council members to bring innovative ideas to governance, assuring them of his confidence in their ability to deliver.

He reiterated his administration’s priorities, including peace and security, infrastructural development, healthcare, education, and good governance.

“I encourage you to study our developmental blueprint, align your efforts with our set goals, and introduce innovative ideas that will accelerate progress,” Mutfwang said.

The governor likened governance to football, explaining that leadership adjustments are necessary to enhance efficiency, just as top players are transferred to fit evolving team strategies.

Inaugurating the governing councils of Plateau State University, Bokkos; Plateau State Polytechnic, Barkin-Ladi; and the College of Education, Gindiri, the governor charged them with revitalizing higher education in the state.

Speaking on behalf of the appointees, the Chairman and Pro-Chancellor of Plateau State University, Bokkos, Prof. William Barnabas Qurix, expressed gratitude to Governor Mutfwang for the opportunity to serve. He assured that they would bring their expertise to bear in driving meaningful progress in the state’s education sector and beyond.

“We are committed to not just serving but making a significant impact through innovative leadership and efficient service delivery,” Qurix pledged.
