“Your presence underscores the importance of Plateau State in the national political landscape and reaffirms the APC’s commitment to unity, inclusion, and progressive governance.”
Hon. Shuwa described their presence as a testament to Plateau State’s growing importance in Nigeria’s political landscape and the APC’s dedication to unity, inclusion, and progressive governance.

Hon. Shuwa emphasized Riyom LGA’s strong identification with the pragmatic leadership of both President Tinubu and Governor Mutfwang, praising their development-focused vision, people-centered policies, and commitment to peace, stability, and economic progress.
As a gateway to Plateau State, Riyom aligns closely with these efforts, which he said resonate with local aspirations for sustainable growth, enhanced security, and grassroots prosperity.
The Riyom council boss expressed full support for the new political direction, expressing confidence that the strengthened collaboration between the federal government, Plateau State administration, and the APC would deliver greater achievements for the state and foster lasting peace in Riyom LGA.
“Once again, we congratulate His Excellency, Governor Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang, and welcome him warmly into the APC family,” the statement reads
