President Bola Tinubu has appealed to voters in Plateau State to re-elect him in 2027, promising improved security, infrastructure development and economic opportunities as his administration intensifies efforts to address the state’s longstanding security challenges.

Tinubu made the appeal on Saturday at the All Progressives Congress (APC) North-Central campaign rally held at the 60,000-capacity Zaria Road Stadium in Jos, where he urged residents to support the party’s candidates at all levels.

The President disclosed that surveillance cameras promised to Plateau State had arrived in Nigeria and would soon be installed, while 1,000 forest guards recruited by the Federal Government were undergoing training ahead of their deployment.

He explained that the forest guards would complement existing security agencies by monitoring forests and other vulnerable locations to prevent criminal activities and strengthen security operations.

Tinubu also called on Nigerians to embrace unity and peaceful coexistence, stressing that the country’s ethnic, religious and cultural diversity should strengthen rather than divide its people.

Vice-President Kashim Shettima, who addressed the rally, attributed the country’s progress to what he described as Tinubu’s transformational and courageous leadership.

Shettima praised Plateau residents for their contributions to national development across education, agriculture, the military, trade, culture and sports, describing the state’s people as a gift to Nigeria.

He urged voters to renew the mandates of Tinubu, Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang and other APC candidates in the 2027 general elections.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio also disclosed that the establishment of state police was in the pipeline, describing it as part of ongoing efforts to strengthen the country’s security architecture.

APC National Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda, listed federal interventions in Plateau to include road projects, two army battalions, a brigade and four security command centres.

He described Tinubu as a promise keeper, urging residents to support his re-election bid in appreciation of the administration’s commitments to the state.

Governor Mutfwang welcomed the President to Jos, describing Plateau as a home of peace and tourism with a significant place in Nigeria’s political history.

He expressed appreciation for federal interventions in road infrastructure, education and healthcare, while highlighting programmes introduced by his administration to improve residents’ welfare.

The governor disclosed that his government was developing an initiative to provide remote employment opportunities for about 2,000 young people working with organisations in the United States and Europe.

He also highlighted plans to deploy a technology-driven command centre to strengthen crime detection and security operations, alongside the introduction of additional compressed natural gas (CNG) buses to ease transportation challenges.

Acknowledging the persistent security challenges in parts of the state, Mutfwang expressed hope that continued government interventions would enable displaced residents to return safely to their ancestral communities.

Other speakers, including Speaker of the House of Representatives Tajudeen Abbas, Director-General of the Presidential Campaign Council Abdulaziz Yari and former Plateau governors Joshua Dariye and Simon Lalong, called for Tinubu’s re-election.

Former Deputy Speaker Ahmed Wase and former Deputy Governor Pauline Tallen also pledged support for the President, citing federal projects and appointments of Plateau indigenes to national positions.

At the rally, Yilwatda presented APC flags to governors seeking re-election and governorship candidates in Nasarawa and Kwara States, Aliyu Wadada and Yakubu Danladi, respectively, urging them to work towards victory for the party across all levels of government.
