The motion was seconded by Hajiya Jamila Gwandu and unanimously supported by attendees.
Hon. Christopher assured that the council remained fully aligned with the Governor’s vision and urged residents to sustain their support. He pointed to projects executed in Jos North, adding that citizens were determined to reward Mutfwang’s performance with stronger electoral backing in 2027.
Also speaking, Jos North PDP Chairman, Hon. Elijah Azi, commended loyalists and residents for their steadfastness, stressing that the Governor’s strides in infrastructure and governance had made him the people’s clear choice for a second term.
