Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang has commissioned the newly refurbished Plateau State House of Assembly Complex in Jos.
He reaffirmed his administration’s deep commitment to strengthening democratic institutions and fostering executive-legislative collaboration.
The landmark ceremony was attended by a broad spectrum of legislators, civil servants, and political observers, marking a significant step toward institutional renewal in the state.
Addressing the gathering, Mutfwang described the extensively renovated edifice as more than a physical transformation; he hailed it as a “symbol of institutional renewal and democratic progress.”
“This is where successive governments and governors have shaped the destiny of our state. We are glad that today we can have an edifice that truly befits the pride of Plateau,” Mutfwang declared.
He emphasised that the commissioning was a “celebration of a healthy executive–legislative relationship” designed to enhance the critical business of lawmaking for the state’s populace.
The governor stressed that democracy thrives best when its institutions operate in harmony for the collective good, and he expressed his profound appreciation to the House leadership and members for their cooperation and partnership.
