Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, has reiterated his administration’s commitment to revamp the agricultural sector toward boosting the economy of the state.

Mutfwang said this on Sunday at the 37th Reunion Service of the Gindiri Old Students Association, on Sunday in Gindiri.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that GOSA is made up of old students of both Boys and Girls Secondary Schools, Gindiri.

The governor, a member of GOSA, acknowledged the critical role of the agricultural sector in revamping the state`s economy and promised to adopt a multi-sectoral approach to resuscitate key agricultural programmes in the state

He promised to achieve the feat through stronger and sustained partnerships with relevant institutions in the state.

“My administration will place more emphasis on agriculture in order to boost the economy of the state,“ he said.

Mutfwang said that he had put in place a robust security architecture that would ensure lasting peace in the state.

He, however, said that collective efforts were needed to ensure the safety of lives and property, particularly in troubled areas.

The governor commended his alma mater for nurturing captains of industries and leaders who had positively impacted their immediate communities and beyond.

Our alma mater is known for nurturing competent leaders, and a ready example is the late J.D. Gomwalk, the first governor of the then Benue-Plateau.

”He contributed significantly to the peace, unity and development of Plateau and Nigeria,” he said.

In his sermon, General Secretary of the Church of Christ in Nation (COCIN), Rev. Benjamin Pokol urged Nigerians to be agents of positive change at all times.

Pokol, who also called on Christians to serve God faithfully, urged GOSA members to continue to be good ambassadors of their alma mater.

President of COCIN, Rev. Amos Mohzoh, lauded the governor’s commitment to ending the security challenges currently confronting the state.
