PRESS RELEASE

The leadership of the Plateau State University Alumni Association Worldwide (PLASUAA) write to respectfully appeal to the ASUU-PLASU Chapter and the Management of Plateau State University to resolve, through constructive dialogue, the issues currently separating both parties.

We acknowledge the concerns raised by ASUU and the responses provided by the University Management. We believe that both deserve sincere consideration and understanding. We equally recognize the sacrifices and commitment of our lecturers, whose dedication has contributed greatly to the academic excellence of PLASU, as well as the efforts of the University Management towards the growth and development of the institution.

However, we appeal that the interest and welfare of the students remain paramount. Prolonged disagreements that disrupt academic activities inevitably place additional burdens on them and may affect their academic progress.

In this regard, we humbly urge both parties to return to the negotiation table in a spirit of mutual respect, understanding and compromise. We believe that through sincere engagement, the concerns of the academic staff and the responsibilities and challenges of Management can be addressed in a manner that protects the interests of all stakeholders.

As alumni who remain deeply committed to the progress and good reputation of our alma mater, and we therefore encourage both sides to prioritize dialogue over confrontation and seek a mutually acceptable resolution.

PLASU Alumni Association as one of the stakeholders in the PLASU project, we believe firmly that PLASU belongs to us all, and its students should not bear the consequences of disagreements among its stakeholders.

We trust in the wisdom and commitment of both ASUU-PLASU and the University Management to find an amicable resolution in the best interest of the students, their parents and the continued development of Plateau State University.

PLATEAU SON ‎PROF NENTAWE REPRESENTS TINUBU AT ASIWAJU SCORECARD SERIES, HIGHLIGHTS ECONOMIC REFORMS AND $1TRN TARGET
‎
‎Abuja — The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, has represented President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the Second Edition of the Asiwaju Scorecard Series/Asiwaju Policy Roundtable, where he highlighted the administration’s economic reforms and its ambition to build a $1 trillion Nigerian economy by 2030.
‎
‎Yilwatda, while delivering the President’s message at the event, conveyed Tinubu’s appreciation for the opportunity to engage Nigerians on the country’s economic transformation and the measures being taken to move Nigeria from economic uncertainty to stability, growth and ultimately prosperity.
‎
‎He highlighted what he described as key progress recorded under the Tinubu administration, including stronger external reserves, increased non-oil revenue, improved trade performance, sustained GDP growth and a moderation in inflation.
‎
‎According to him, while macroeconomic stability remains important, it should be viewed as a foundation for delivering tangible improvements in the lives of Nigerians, including lower food prices, more jobs, affordable credit, reliable electricity and stronger purchasing power.
‎
‎The APC National Chairman also emphasised that President Tinubu’s $1 trillion economy target by 2030 should not be regarded merely as an economic figure but as a national development mission aimed at making Nigeria more productive, competitive and prosperous.
‎
‎He outlined the importance of strategic infrastructure, including highways, railways, deep-sea ports, energy infrastructure and digital connectivity, to link Nigeria’s production centres with domestic and international markets.
‎
‎Yilwatda further highlighted the administration’s five-port maritime vision, road and rail corridors, industrial parks, agro-processing zones, logistics hubs and manufacturing clusters as critical components of an economic architecture capable of driving production, employment, exports and investment.
‎
‎He also identified the AKK gas pipeline and investments in young Nigerians through education, skills development, digital training and responsible access to credit as important elements of the broader economic transformation agenda.
‎
‎As the country approaches the 2027 general elections, Prof. Yilwatda said Nigerians would be faced with a choice between progress and retreat, productivity and stagnation, and investment and isolation.
‎
‎He maintained that the foundation for economic transformation had been laid under President Tinubu and called for sustained efforts to translate reforms into measurable results, growth and improved prosperity for Nigerians.
‎
‎He concluded that the administration's broader objective was to move the country “from reform to results, from results to growth, from growth to prosperity, and from prosperity to a $1 trillion economy.”

Not in God's house: Kanke Mutfwang Green Boys caution Keffiano over inciting statements.

The Mutfwang Green Boys note with concern recent statements by the self‑declared PDP candidate, Mr. Keffiano, that exploit insecurity in Plateau State for political gain.

His sudden expression of alarm is politics in its rawest form.

We ask, before now, how many times has Mr. Keffiano visited Bwonpe, Daffo, Mushere or any of the other communities that have suffered attacks in Bassa, Jos East, Barki‑Ladi, or Jos South?

A Sympathy for victims is welcome, but it must be matched by sustained action and presence, not opportunistic rhetoric.

We sympathize deeply with all families who have lost loved ones. At the same time, security challenges in Plateau did not begin with the current administration, and this statement is not a defence of Governor Mutfwang.

Since 1999 we have all wrestled with insecurity on the Plateau.

The Federal Government’s security budget currently stands at 5.41 trillion, yet the allocation has not eliminated the problem. It is disingenuous to suggest that any state governor, who does not control the federal security architecture, can single‑handedly end insecurity.

Governor Mutfwang’s heart is with every grieving family. He continues to work around the clock with security agencies, traditional leaders and community stakeholders to restore peace and prevent further bloodshed. We call on all who love Plateau to support these efforts rather than use insecurity as a platform for political canvassing.

We also urge the church elders and spiritual fathers not to be bullied or coerced into compromising their consciences.

Places of worship must remain above political manipulation.

To Mr. Keffiano, this is a genuine piece of advice. Consolidate your resources, sharpen your strategy, and prepare for the next time the governorship rotates to the Central Zone after Northern and Southern Plateau have completed their tenures. You still have age on your side; with patience and prudence you may yet be a leading voice for our people. In the meantime, beware of those around you who are present for personal gain rather than for speaking hard truths.

*No Muslim group plans to establish Hisbah in Plateau State — JNI*

The Plateau State chapter of Jama’atu Nasril Islam (JNI) has clarified that no Muslim organisation has announced plans to establish a Hisbah organisation in Jos North Local Government Area of the state.

The clarification follows a recent controversy over reports circulating on social media about the alleged establishment of a Hisbah organisation in the area, which attracted the attention of the Plateau State Government.

On Sunday, the state government issued a statement banning the establishment and operation of Hisbah across the state, describing any attempt to establish such an organisation as illegal and unacceptable.

Speaking to Blueprint Radio Abuja on Monday, the Secretary of JNI in Plateau State, Dr Salim Musa Umar, said no Islamic organisation in the state had announced plans to establish Hisbah in Jos North.

He said the reports originated from social media, where some individuals allegedly used artificial intelligence-generated images to create the impression that a Hisbah organisation had been established in the local government.

“I want to assure the people that no Islamic organisation in Plateau has come out to say it wants to establish Hisbah. There is nothing like that. It has never been discussed and it is not part of what is being considered,” Umar said.

He explained that the controversy began when some people circulated images on social media showing individuals in purported Hisbah uniforms.

“The matter started on social media when some people appeared in uniforms created with the help of artificial intelligence, claiming that they had established Hisbah in Jos North. The information gained traction and people began sharing it widely,” he said.

According to him, an organisation such as Hisbah cannot be legally established without enabling legislation passed by the State House of Assembly.

“Hisbah cannot be established without a law from the State House of Assembly, and the government has not done that. Therefore, people cannot simply come out and claim that they have established Hisbah,” he said.

Umar described the incident as one that initially appeared to be a social media joke but later attracted widespread public attention, eventually prompting the state government to issue its warning.

He urged the Plateau State Government to conduct thorough investigations whenever issues involving religion emerge, particularly when such issues have the potential to generate tension among communities.

The JNI official also appealed to social media users to refrain from creating or circulating content capable of causing misunderstanding and disrupting peaceful coexistence in the state.

The controversy over the alleged establishment of Hisbah in Jos North has continued to generate debate among residents, particularly on social media platforms, where the reports first emerged.
