Governor Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State has called on his appointees to redouble their effort and perform creditably well.
The governor gave the charge at the 2025 Executive Retreat for government appointees and officials on Monday.
The programme which was held at Miango in Bassa Local Government Area of the state, had commissioners, permanent secretaries, and special advisers, among others, in attendance.
He emphatically said, apart from himself and the Deputy Governor, no appointee has a permanent job. “There is no time for selfishness, because one of the things that we will all do is for the progress of society. No man can do it alone, and so the time when we were operating individually and creating power for ourselves is over.
“It is now time to join hands together and take advantage of this time. Don’t think you have time. Even if you are posted to a ministry for three months, make a difference.
“Everyone of us, apart from myself and the deputy governor, is guaranteed a duty post. Do your best in every position you are in and be sincere. Yes, it is good to be loyal to me, but what I want from this moment is that your loyalty shift to the God of heaven.
“So, you must always try on a daily basis to keep a clear conscience before God and before men. I will like to see us work unsupervised. I want us to give our best because our people are dying, our people are suffering, our people are living in poverty, and they have given us the trust to do something about their situation.
“We can’t wait any more; the time to make a difference is now. And I want to urge you, wherever your duty post is, to do your best and stretch yourself so that a solution can be provided to our people. May we not fail,” he said.
