Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, has officially resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), citing the need for a different political platform to better serve the people of the state. The governor submitted a letter of resignation dated December 29, 2025, to the PDP Chairman of his Ampang West Ward, Dasjak Sunday Longyol.
Mutfwang explained that his decision to leave the party was guided by his desire for purposeful leadership, clear direction, and effective service delivery for Plateau residents. In the letter, he thanked the PDP for providing him the platform to participate in the democratic process and expressed gratitude to party leaders, members, and supporters for their support during his time in the party.
While the resignation letter did not specify which party he had joined, sources indicate that Mutfwang is reportedly moving to the All Progressives Congress (APC). The APC’s National Working Committee has welcomed him, assuring support for his new political journey.
This resignation ends months of speculation over the governor’s political alignment and marks a major shift in Plateau State’s political landscape ahead of the 2027 general elections. Observers note that Mutfwang’s departure may influence party dynamics in the state and affect upcoming political contests.
Governor Mutfwang’s exit from PDP comes at a time when the party continues to face internal challenges and defections across several states, prompting a re-evaluation of its strategies and leadership structure. The move also signals an ongoing trend of high-profile politicians seeking alternative platforms to advance their political goals in Nigeria’s evolving political scene.
