As most governors elected under the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have continued to defect to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), thereby creating an atmosphere for a one-party system in Nigeria, G Platea State governor, Caleb Mutfwang officially has resigned as member of the PDP.
This is contained in a letter dated December 30, 2025, addressed to the PDP ward chairman in Ampang West Ward, Mangu Local Government Area of the state.
The letter, personally signed by the governor, was made available to newsmen on Thursday in Jos.
The governor, who thanked the PDP for providing him with a platform to participate in the democratic process, also thanked leaders of the party at all levels for the support and solidarity.
He said “given the realities of the moment and guides by my commitment to purposeful leadership , clarity of direction and service delivery, I’m compelled to seek an alternative political platform.”
Mutfwang was elected governor in 2023 on the platform of the PDP, though the governor didn’t state his next political destination.
