The Plateau State Government has presented a three-year scorecard of Governor Caleb Mutfwang’s “Time Is Now” administration, highlighting achievements in infrastructure, agriculture, youth empowerment, and public welfare.
The report was presented during a live programme on SilverBird’s Rhythm 93.7 FM in Jos, where three commissioners outlined the administration’s progress, challenges, and future plans as part of activities marking its third anniversary in office.
The delegation included the Commissioner for Information and Communication, Joyce Ramnap; Commissioner for Works, Joshua Laven; and Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development, Samson Bugama.
Speaking on the programme themed “Governor Caleb Mutfwang’s Three-Year Scorecard: Progress, Challenges and Prospects,” the commissioners said the administration’s achievements are anchored on its Three-Pillar Policy Framework, designed to stabilise the state, create wealth, and expand infrastructure.
The Commissioner for Works, Hon. Laven, said the government remains committed to completing all ongoing projects, stressing that no project would be abandoned.
He said infrastructure development remains central to the administration’s agenda due to its role in driving economic growth and improving living standards, adding that ongoing road rehabilitation projects across local government areas and the Metro Bus initiative are aimed at easing transportation costs and improving mobility for workers, students, and traders.
On agriculture, Bugama said the administration has introduced measures to improve farmers’ access to markets and remove barriers affecting fair pricing of agricultural produce.
He explained that the strategy combines improved rural road access with value-chain support to boost productivity and profitability, while also noting the establishment of job centres to connect young people with skills acquisition and employment opportunities to reduce unemployment and restiveness.
The Commissioner for Information and Communication, Ramnap, said pensioners and vulnerable groups remain a priority for the government, adding that communication channels have been strengthened to improve public engagement and awareness of government policies and projects.
“Trust is built when government is open and citizens are informed,” she said.
Callers during the live programme acknowledged improvements in roads, water supply, and security, while urging the government to sustain its public communication efforts.
One caller emphasised the need for consistent information flow, noting that governance should not be left to politics alone and that citizens require adequate information to support development initiatives.
In response, the commissioners pledged to strengthen town hall meetings, media engagement, and community sensitisation to ensure citizens remain active partners in governance.
They said that three years into the administration, progress can be seen in efforts to restore peace, reform institutions, revitalise agriculture, and rebuild infrastructure across the state.
Ramnap concluded that the “Time Is Now” agenda reflects a commitment to delivering projects, protecting lives, and maintaining transparent communication with the people of Plateau State.
