Saturday, September 21, 2024 Plateau governor, Caleb Muftwang has blamed those he described as his political detractors and mischief makers for the speculations that he is planning to dump the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP for the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Muftwang said this while denying the rumours
circulating in the social media that he is about to dump the PDP, on which
platform he was elected.
A flex banner with the
picture of the governor has been circulating in the social media, suggesting
his defection to the APC.
One of the banners is
also mounted in a strategic location in Benin City, Edo State.
But Muftwang, in a
statement by Gyang Bere, his Director of Press and Public Affairs (DOPPA),
issued on Friday in Jos flatfly denied the claim.
He said the
speculations were the handiwork of his political detractors and mischief makers
aimed at breeding acrimony between him and the leadership of PDP.
”While this baseless rumour does not
warrant a formal response, it has become necessary to dispel any misconceptions
that may mislead the public and tarnish my integrity.
”I remain a committed member of the PDP and
firmly uphold the values of the party and trust placed on me by the people of
Plateau.
”The rumour that I’m contemplating leaving
the PDP for the APC is entirely false.
”This fabricated story is the work of those
who do not wish Plateau well.
”I wish to call on the public to dismiss the
rumour and refrain from sharing the false information,” Mutfwang said.
