“I am aware of the support many of you provided during times of adversity. This support has strengthened my resolve to lead a government that upholds principles of fairness, justice and equality.

“Our policies are designed to benefit all residents and create a conducive environment for visitors to Plateau State. I sincerely appreciate the collaboration of Islamic clerics, especially during our efforts at Terminus and thank you for your cooperation,” he said.

Earlier, Dr Haruna Muhammad Sambo, the JNI chairman and Emir of Wase, who led the delegation, expressed appreciation to Governor Mutfwang and the Plateau State Government for developmental initiatives benefiting the Muslim community and the entire state.

He specifically commended government’s support for the 2024 Hajj logistics and mobilisation.

Sambo also praised Mutfwang for initiatives such as the introduction of metro buses and revitalisation of railway, which have significantly eased transportation challenges for residents.

Addressing recent incidents related to the enforcement of Executive Order 003 by a taskforce, he called for increased collaboration to ensure smooth implementation, emphasising the importance of sustainable peace and cleanliness in Jos under the Greater Jos master plan.
