Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang pledged massive electoral support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu ahead of the January 16, 2027 presidential election, declaring that the state will reward the president for guiding Nigeria toward economic recovery.
Speaking at the All Progressives Congress (APC) North-Central presidential campaign rally at Zaria Road Stadium in Jos, Mutfwang compared Nigeria’s economic state at the start of Tinubu’s tenure to a critical patient.
“You met Nigeria in an intensive care unit. You have ministered policies, and now we are recovering,” Mutfwang told the president and party supporters.
The governor praised Tinubu as a dedicated ally of Plateau and the North-Central region, citing federal interventions in road infrastructure, healthcare, and security.
He vowed that Plateau residents would repay those efforts at the ballot box.
“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 on January 16, 2027,” Mutfwang stated.
While commending federal security efforts against insurgency, the governor urged Tinubu to authorise special federal interventions to resettle displaced residents in their ancestral homes and rebuild devastated communities.

He also requested federal support to upgrade the 40-year-old Zaria Road Stadium into an international-standard facility, noting his own administration’s efforts to expand public transit with additional buses.
In response, Tinubu assured Plateau residents that the Nigerian government will partner with the state to rebuild insurgency-hit communities and promote shared prosperity.
Vice President Kashim Shettima, Senate President Godswill Akpabio, First Lady Oluremi Tinubu, and APC National Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda also attended the rally.
