The Governor of Plateau State, Caleb Mutfwang, has congratulated Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda on his successful screening and return as the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, alongside other members of the National Working Committee.
In a congratulatory message signed by the governor’s Director of Press and Public Affairs, Gyang Bere on Saturday, Governor Mutfwang described Prof. Goshwe’s emergence through a consensus arrangement as a thoughtful demonstration of the APC’s commitment to inclusive, people-oriented leadership under the guidance of President Bola Tinubu, particularly as the nation looks ahead to the 2027 general elections.
The governor commended the maturity and foresight of party leaders and stakeholders who have continued to promote unity, tolerance and strategic reforms within the party.
He noted that such efforts have strengthened internal cohesion and ensured a level playing field for all members to pursue their aspirations without rancour.
Governor Mutfwang further acknowledged the efforts and leadership of Prof. Goshwe since his unanimous adoption in June 2025.
He highlighted key initiatives, including reconciliation among party members, the reorganisation of party membership through e-registration, and the repositioning of the APC for sustained growth and electoral success.
Expressing confidence in Yilwtda’s capacity, the governor emphasised his expertise in digital transformation, energy research and ICT, as well as his service as a Resident Electoral Commissioner.
He noted that these credentials position him to lead the party ahead of the 2027 elections.
Governor Mutfwang also appreciated key national leaders, including President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Vice President Kashim Shettima, Senate President Godswill Akpabio, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, as well as governors and other stakeholders, for zoning the national chairmanship position to the North Central region, particularly Plateau State.
He added that Plateau State is endowed with capable individuals of proven integrity in public service and expressed confidence that Prof. Goshwe would foster unity, peace and progressive leadership within the party while strengthening its legacy of justice, tolerance and compassion.
“On behalf of the government and peace-loving people of Plateau State, Governor Mutfwang congratulates Prof. Goshwe on this recognition and prays for God’s guidance, strength, good health and wisdom as he assumes this leadership role,” the statement read.
