Plateau Governor Mutfwang Resigns from PDP

Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, has formally resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), citing the need for focused leadership, clearer direction, and improved service delivery in the state.

In a letter dated December 29, 2025, and addressed to the PDP Ward Chairman of Ampang West Ward in Mangu Local Government Area, the governor announced his withdrawal from the party with immediate effect. The resignation letter was acknowledged by the ward leadership the following day.

Mutfwang expressed appreciation to the PDP for providing him the platform to serve within Nigeria’s democratic system, thanking party leaders and supporters for their support over the years. He noted that prevailing political realities informed his decision to leave the party.

The development has generated significant political interest across Plateau State, with growing speculation that the governor may align with the All Progressives Congress (APC), although no official announcement has been made regarding his next political move.
