Plateau State governor, Barr. Caleb Mutfwang, has reaffirmed his commitment to collaborating with groups working to mobilise support for President Bola Tinubu to be re-elected next year.
The governor and the leaders of the support groups declared that the President would record a landslide victory in Plateau State in the 2027 presidential election.
Mtfwang also pledged his administration’s support for the Renewed Hope Youth Engagement.
He described the initiative as a credible platform for empowering young people and promoting their participation in governance, leadership and national development.
Mutfwang, represented by his deputy, Mrs Josephine Piyo, spoke on Wednesday during the inauguration of the Plateau State Coordinating Unit of the Renewed Hope Youth Engagement in Jos.
He said the inauguration was more than the unveiling of a political structure, noting that it represented a shared vision that recognises young people as indispensable partners in nation-building rather than mere spectators in governance.
According to him, the initiative aligns with his administration’s commitment to youth participation, innovation, entrepreneurship, civic responsibility and sustainable development.
“I congratulate the national leadership of the Renewed Hope Youth Engagement, the Plateau State Coordinator, Mr. Wilson Manji, and every member of the coordination team for their dedication to mobilising young people around the ideals of responsible citizenship, patriotism and constructive engagement.
“I encourage this coordination unit to distinguish itself through service, integrity, innovation and inclusiveness.
” Let your activities go beyond political mobilisation and become a catalyst for leadership development, civic education and meaningful community engagement,” the governor said.
Mutfwang added that his administration would continue to support programmes that expand opportunities for young people, stressing that the success of Plateau State depended largely on the success of its youthful population.
He also commended President Tinubu for placing youth development at the centre of the Renewed Hope Agenda, saying sustainable national development can only be achieved through the active participation of young people.
Earlier, Plateau State Coordinator of the Renewed Hope Youth Engagement, Wilson Manji, expressed confidence that President Tinubu would secure overwhelming support from Plateau voters in the 2027 presidential election.
