He stressed that the measures were part of his administration’s determination to restore peace and ensure that displaced residents could return to their homes without fear.

Mutfwang also commended President Bola Tinubu for his support in tackling insecurity and his efforts towards improving the welfare of Nigerians.

The governor urged residents of Plateau State to remain patient and continue supporting his administration’s efforts to restore lasting peace and security across the state.

He maintained that creating a safe environment for residents and facilitating the return of displaced families remained key priorities of his government.
