The Mutfwang Gida Gida Campaign Organisation has officially flagged off its 2027 political mobilisation campaign in support of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Plateau State Governor, Barr. Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang re-elections, and other APC candidates ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The campaign flag-off, held on Thursday, November 5, 2026, at Tamarald Event Centre, JIB Junction, Old Airport Road, Jos, brought together political stakeholders, supporters and grassroots mobilisers from across Plateau State.
Speaking at the event, the Coordinator of the organisation, Apostle Ellam Tanko Chalahan, said Mutfwang Gida Gida was established in 2022 to mobilise support for Governor Mutfwang and would continue to complement the APC through grassroots engagement, voter sensitisation and community mobilisation.
He dismissed allegations that the organisation was operating as a parallel political structure, explaining that its role was to strengthen the party’s activities by taking its message and achievements to communities across the state.
Chalahan stressed that Gida Gida is not a new organisation, but a continuous movement established in 2022 which fought hard for the governor’s first term election. He said the organisation will work with the party, other support groups and the campaign council to ensure the victory of Governor Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and all APC candidates.
He described the Mutfwang administration as a listening government, saying its efforts towards peace, infrastructure and human development had given the organisation reasons to seek its continuation beyond 2027.
He urged supporters to take the campaign beyond social media and engage directly with voters, encouraging eligible residents to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) and participate in the election.
The coordinator also called on Plateau residents to sustain the peace and development recorded in the state, urging them to support the governor, the president and other APC candidates in the forthcoming elections.
The Commissioner for Youth and Sports Development, Hon. Prince Miaphen, commended the governor for appointing young people into his cabinet, describing the administration as youth-friendly. He urged youths to reciprocate the gesture by mobilising support for Mutfwang, Tinubu and other APC candidates in 2027.
Reinforcing the administration’s performance message, Hon. Daniel Mutfwang said the governor had recorded significant progress in education, road infrastructure, housing, environment and sports.
He argued that the impact of government projects mattered more than commissioning ceremonies, noting that residents were already benefiting from newly constructed roads and boreholes in communities that previously lacked access to water.
Daniel also highlighted ongoing water infrastructure projects, including the ₦37 billion Lantang Dam, Laminga Dam and Shendam water supply scheme.
He said the planned water reticulation project would provide approximately 200 kilometres of pipework across Jos and Bukuru when completed.
In her campaign charge, the North Central Women Leader of the Tinubu Support Group, Mrs Mary Adamu Osoji, identified love and genuine concern for the people as important qualities needed to strengthen political mobilisation in Plateau State.
She urged political appointees to demonstrate greater love and commitment to the people around them, noting that such gestures would help connect the government with communities at the grassroots.
Also speaking, Hajiya Aishatu Muhammed Adam appreciated Governor Mutfwang for what she described as his support for women, urging women and youths not to relent in mobilising support for the APC and protecting their votes on election day.
On his part, Hon. Sunday Abdul called on supporters to continue taking the achievements of President Bola Tinubu and Governor Mutfwang to communities in both rural and urban areas.
Similarly, the Senior Special Adviser to the Governor, Hon. Jiritmwa Goyit, urged members of the organisation to base their campaigns on the administration’s achievements across different sectors.
The event also featured the official unveiling of the organisation’s state and local government coordinators and support groups, who pledged to extend the mobilisation campaign to communities across the state.
Women leaders and other coordinators called for sustained grassroots mobilisation, while also appealing for more opportunities for women, youths and people with informal education in government appointments.
A documentary showcasing some of the achievements of Governor Mutfwang’s administration was also presented during the ceremony.
The flag-off was colourfully spiced with cultural displays showcasing the rich cultures of Plateau State, as various groups thrilled the audience with traditional dances and performances.
The organisation said it would build on its previous mobilisation efforts by strengthening community engagement and taking the APC campaign to every part of Plateau State ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The event was attended by government officials, government advisers and a huge turnout of digital supporters and mobilisers across the seventeen local government areas of Plateau State and other support groups under the campaign organisation, under the digital campaign organisation.
