Governor Sacks All LG Chairmen

Voice Air Media, News Update

Barely a month to the upcoming local government elections in Plateau State, Governor Caleb Mutfwang, has dissolved the 17 Local Government Transition Implementation Committee Chairmen, effective from September 6, 2024.

VAM News recalls that the Transition Implementation Committee chairmen were constituted on June 9, 2023.

The governor has directed Directors of Personnel Management (DPMs) to take charge of the councils until local government polls are held.

The announcement was made in a press statement signed by the Director of Press and Public Affairs to the governor, Mr Gyang Bere in Jos, the State capital, Friday night.

It reads: “Following the dissolution of the Transition Implementation Committee chairmen, Directors of Personnel Management (DPMs) are to assume responsibility for the administration of the local government areas until elections are held on October 9, 2024 to fill the positions.”

The governor commended the Transition Committee Chairmen for their exemplary leadership and dedication to advancing developmental projects that have directly impacted their communities.

He expressed pride in their accomplishments and urged them to continue offering valuable counsel to promote peace and unity within the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the State.

Mutfwang also encouraged the former chairmen to collaborate with their constituents to ensure the party’s success in the forthcoming local government elections.

He thanked the people of the State for their unwavering support, noting that, “the outcome of the PDP primaries for the chairmanship and councilorship elections reflects the deep connection the people have with the party”.

“We want to reaffirm our commitment to running an inclusive, transparent, and accountable government that serves the interests of all Plateau citizens”, the governor stressed.
