Plateau governor, Caleb Mutfwang, has said his defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC) would spur him to provide qualitative leadership to the state.
Mutfwang said this when he received the membership card of APC on Friday to indicate his official defection from PDP, the platform on which he was elected into office.
Plateau State APC Chairman Rufus Bature presented the membership card of the party to the Governor on Friday in Jos.
Speaking at the event, Mutfwang said that his defection to the APC was in the interest of the state.
The governor, who promised an all-inclusive system in spite of the change in party, called on the people of the state to unite at all times.

“The journey we are embarking on is a journey of faith and I believe that Plateau will reap the dividends of this union.
“I know there are skeptics, but I say be patient. Time will reveal everything.
“To the fearful, I say take courage, fear, no more because we have come for good.
“We have come to join hands; we have come to work together. For those who may be apprehensive, like I said earlier, relax,”he said.
The governor thanked the members of the PDP for providing him with a platform for his political journey.
Mutfwang, who thanked President Bola Tinubu for his deep love towards Plateau, promised to support his re-election bid in 2027.
