Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, has officially defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The announcement was made on Thursday by the APC National Chairman, Professor Nantewe Yilwatda, during the ongoing APC National Caucus Meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Mutfwang’s defection represents one of the most significant political shifts in Plateau State politics in recent years and is expected to alter the state’s political balance ahead of future elections.
Major Political Breakthrough For APC
Governor Mutfwang’s move to the ruling party is widely seen as a strategic development that strengthens APC’s influence in the North Central region. Political analysts suggest the move could reshape alliances and voter expectations before the next electoral cycle.
Impact On Plateau Political Landscape
The Plateau governor has been a dominant figure in state politics, and his departure from the PDP may trigger further realignments within the state assembly and party structures.
More details are expected as reactions from PDP leaders, elected officials, and stakeholders begin to emerge.
