Governor Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State has reminded Local Government Executives that their being in government is not an accident but an opportunity to pay the debt that they owe humanity.

He therefore stated that they must discharge their duties with every sense of responsibility.

Mutfwang spoke while declaring close a five-day retreat organised by Plateau State Ministry for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs for Local Government Council Executives at Miango Rest Home, Miango, Bassa LGA, Plateau State.

Gov. Mutfwang called for synergy among the local government executives and administrators for a better local government administration in the state.

He encouraged them to rethink local government administration and make a difference.

Speaking on the theme of the retreat, ‘That Plateau May Shine,’ Mutfwang noted that if Plateau must shine, then all the 17 local government areas of the state must shine as well.

He appreciated the resource persons who took out time to engage the local government executives on various topics and urged the participants to take the lessons learned back home to their respective staff.

Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Ephraim Usman, who read the communique issued at the end of the five-day retreat, said the event was an impactful one to the local government executives.
