Plateau 2022: PDP's Caleb Mutfwang Accused Of Owing LG Workers For 10-Months by AnonPoet: 11:23am On Feb 14, 2023
Advises Mutfwang to apologize to Ex Mangu workers or withdraw from gubernatorial race ”

Insist gang up against Gov Lalong would fail



Group, operating under the aegis of Plateau APC Alliance for good governance has throw its weight behind the comments of Governor Simon Lalong at the flag off of the state All Progressives Congress (APC) Gubernatorial rally in Wase local government council of the state .

The group also said that the perceived gang up against Governor Lalong will fail woefully, as the people of the state have rejected the PDP and would vote massively for the APC in the forthcoming polls from top to bottom.

Lalong had last Wednesday during a rally at Wase LGA, accused the People’s Democratic party PDP Governorship Candidate Bar Caleb Mutfwang of leaving behind 10 months’ salary arrears during his tenure as local government chairman of Mangu local government council .

Lalong had at the occasion also said he had documents to show that Mutfwang left 10 months of unpaid salaries to workers of Mangu LGA .

In a swift reaction the leader of the group Hon Idris Ado , said rather than attack Governor Lalong ,the Candidate of the PDP in Plateau state has no business been in politics especially after failing to pay LGA workers while in office as council boss of Mangu .

“We advise people of Plateau especially civil servants to reject the PDP candidate because he would continue to owe salaries ,we would not allow our Civil servants to become beggers “.

Ado who spoke to reporters in Abuja on Tuesday said ,we stand by our Governor Simon Lalong for always saying the truth at all times .

” We have carefully carried out our investigation and come to the conclusion that Governor Lalong was right as several ex staff of Mangu local government council of the state whom we meet confirmed that Governor Lalong’s comment on the PDP Candidate was nothing but the truth .
” We call on the PDP candidate to apologize to the ex workers of Mangu local government council or withdraw from the Governorship race .


The group alleged that Civil servants in Plateau would see hell fire if he is elected as Governor of Plateau state in the forthcoming polls.”

” Unlike the PDP Candidate ,Our Governor Simon Lalong has the interest of civil servants at heart and would continue to pay their salaries as at when due ”

During the APC rally in Wase ,we could see the feeling of satisfaction on the faces of the people of Plateau state . When you get the opportunity to serve, we must serve the people to the best of our ability. Governor Lalong is serving the good people of Plateau State and he would deliver the APC in the state .

Lalong would triumph over his enemies just like Elijah triumphed over the priests of Baal
as conspiracies against Lalong in the past had met brick walls just like the new plan being hatched by those he called enemies of progress in Plateau would also suffer the same fate.

The PDP candidate Caleb Mutfwang had some days ago rebutted Governor Simon Lalong’s allegations of unpaid salaries levelled against him during his tenure as chairman of Mangu Local Government Area of the state.



Mutfwang, who spoke in Wase Local Government Area during a town hall meeting said i want to challenge Governor Lalong in the same Wase, that if he is not a coward, let him produce the documents that prove that I did not pay salaries for 10 months as local government chairman.

“Let me inform you that I have instructed my lawyers to take action, he will be hearing from my lawyers very soon if he does not refute that allegation, we will meet in court.

“He should remember that his immunity expires on the 29th of May, thereafter, he will have no hiding place.” Mutfwang had said

Of course, I know. I have always said earlier that what Africans considered independence was a transition of the old method of exploitation (colonialism), to a new, self-sustaining, sophisticated method of permanent subjugation (imperialism). They replace the white colonial faces with black faces, whom they promise all the support and will ignore all their crimes if they continue sustaining all their exploitative structures that were built in the colonial era. So as countries were getting their so-called independence, they were ushered into western imperialistic ecosystems. So they became a member of the UN, and ICC, must use the dollar, imposed educational systems, their corporations coming in to control their resources, (eg Shell and Nigeria oil), and so on. In simple terms, think of how a butcher moves the cows from the farm to the slaughterhouse. In the cow's mind, he is free from the enclosed farm, but the slaughterhouse though modern and shiny with machines is worse than where they were coming from. You see the way the US froze billions of dollars of Afghanistan's foreign reserves, and as they did with Russia as well, that's exactly the fate that awaits any country that tries to pull off their imperialistic eco-system. While we are busy fighting each other like idiots, they are up there designing sophisticated systems to keep others down, and themselves on top. And this world order must go, or else, the global south will never develop. China refused to be part of that system, now look at them. Iran refused and was sanctioned to death, but they still thrive and built their own planes and so forth. Until we leave western dependence and walk our own part, no magic Peter Obi will perform. It's like putting a pilot in a ship, it can't do anything with it. How can the world be democratic when less than 15% of the world population (the west) controls everything? if this is not authoritarianism, then what is authoritarianism? But I always take responsibility, so I won't blame them much, I blame our ancestors for letting this degrade this badly, and makes it harder for current and future generation to solve. The rot is too much.

pansophist:
Josep Borell is a racist piece of shit. Sadly, this scum is a top EU politician, and calling the non-western countries jungle is a reincarnation of the mindset that led to colonialism and slavery pro-max. He still sees the world from a colonial lens, but his arrogance is needed since that's how he can cope in a changing world that is increasingly becoming multi-polar and catching up.

From 1991 to 2022, something that has never happened before in the history of the world happened, that thing is called unipolarism. After the collapse of the soviet union in 1991, China was dirt poor, imperial Japan has been defeated and occupied, the same with nazi Germany, India still recovering from British colonialism, Iran was in deep soup, and Africa was too backward to even be noticed.

The west, especially the US was the largest economy, and the strongest military power holds the world's reserved currency and enjoys an unparalleled political, economical, military, and soft power globally. The US was so strong that when it coughs, the world shivered. And then they showed themselves. Then the global bombing tour started, from Iraq to Syria, Venezuela to Yugoslavia, and Libya to Iran, to name a few.

Meanwhile, the Chinese who have suffered what they called a ''century of humiliation'' was in the background bidding their time, getting stronger, and building themselves up. The Chinese who lost territories the size of Nigeria x4, an empire nation that was torn apart by foreign powers, and saw what awaits you when you are weak, said to themselves, NEVER AGAIN.

Putin was then a KGB agent in Germany, young and smart, but silent and working his way up into the Kremlin. He witnessed how countries that used to be part of Russia have now become sworn enemies of Russia, and he dreamt of a stronger, independent, and sovereign Russia that occupies its rightful place on the international stage.

And February, 24th of 2022 will be remembered as the date when the world becomes clearly multipolar, after thirty years of failed unipolarism. The world has clearly understood the kind of monster the west is, and how they dream of a world where everyone is down, and only them up. Now, the way the international stage is set up, other stronger countries are now a deterrent, and they will never allow themselves to be weak again. NEVER.

It will not happen very fast, but the complete breakdown of western hegemony will happen faster than the time it took to build it. Destruction is faster than building, and destroying evil is even faster, especially when the destroyers are the victims of the very evil. I know the Russia-China alliances are cooking something, I suspect that they have set traps that will render all western imperialistic ecosystems useless.

From my calculations, the more the west throws out a country from its imperialistic systems, an alternative will be invented that will make that system useless. So for example, they threw Russia out of swift, but Russia created SPFS which they used to carry financial transactions between themselves and other countries.

If they threw China out of the UN for example, then a new UN that is fair will be invented, rendering the western controlled system useless. If you refuse to sell your tech, buy our oil, or ban us from visiting your countries (as they did with Russians), you will kill your industry and other regions will benefit financially from your market loss. One thing that kills a monopoly is competition, especially competent competition.

We live in very interesting times. Brace up, shit might get really bad before it gets better. Sha have proper wealth, not fiat money only, which can collapse. Have farmland, a water well, and livestock/poultry, these will keep you alive, not chains, iPhones, and paper money. Your survival is in your hands, not the government. Be vigilant, and use the internet to learn real stuff and how the world works, not just for social media and entertainment.

Accused?
Whatever you want to be accused of, never be accused of marrying a woman you did not disvirgin.
How will you pay bride price, sponsor wedding ceremony and take care of in-laws just to have a woman who was fvcked by men who didn't pay more than two eggs and indomie?

Only a fool would do that. Are you the fool?

Don't mind these PDP politicians, they brought a failed politician (Mutfwang) with very bad antecedents and to sell him they can only latch on the failures of the current APC governor Lalong whose party (APC) actually brought forth a fantastic candidate to in the name of Prof. Nentawe. Like Peter Obi, PDP and other parties don't have any single dirt on Prof. Nentawe as a person. Their only argument is that Lalong has failed as governor.

Party politics is very bad, they ignore the obvious good and adopt the obvious bad in the name of party.

And this makes front page?
Barrister Caleb Mutfwang is not the reason behind inability of the council to pay workers salary.
Mangu is one of the most populated LGC in plateau state and the Mwaghavuul people are well read, which makes them highly employable,that makes the LGC to have on of the highest workforce in the state.
That been said; I'm not holding brief for bar Caleb Mutfwang. But uptil this day, Mangu LGC is still owing her workers months of salaries, and paying them just little over 56% of their salaries, accorded them.
The issue is not Mutfwang but politics of blackmail.
The state holds JAAC meeting,and the subvention been given to the LGC is not enough to pay salaries and also to run the LGC.
MANGU LGC,has one of the largest market on the plateau and its predominately a civil services and agricgrian LGC. it's revenue and FAAC/JAAC disposition is merger compare to other LGC,IT'S SIZE.
LALONG IS NOT SAYING THE TRUTH,SAME CAN BE VERIFIED. NOW APC IS IN LEADERSHIP BOTH AT THE LGC AND STATE. WHY THEN DID THE PROBLEMS PERSISTED??

Very true, Nentawe is a fantastic man likewise Mutfwang...on personal level I know both. But now I ask u my brother, today's LGAs are without autonomy, the state governors are solely responsible for every shit that happens in the LGAs, who do we now blame for Council Chairmen's inability to pay salaries? I hope u know local government council's allocation from FG doesn't go to the chairmen directly anymore but allocations goes to the coffers of the State government...and the governor decides who gets what...

The last time I checked Mr 33 is owing salaries of workers but here you are spewing nonsense. We will humble you at the polls. For his senatorial ambition, it's over even before the polls. If Ngas people want to go the tribal line, you will learn a bitter lesson at the polls.

BCM In Wase


9th February, 2023


...challenges Lalong to substantiate allegation


The gubernatorial standard bearer of the People's Democratic Party, PDP, Plateau State, Barr. Caleb Mutfwang, BCM, has emphatically challenged the Governor of Plateau State, Barr. Simon Lalong, to substantiate the allegation he made against him at the All Progressives Congress, APC, campaign flagoff yesterday in Wase.

Governor Simon Lalong had alleged during the flagoff that he has documents which prove that Barr. Caleb Mutfwang as Chairman of Mangu Local Government Area, LGA, in the past, did not pay workers salaries for 10months.

Responding during a town hall meeting today in Wase, the same location the spurious allegation was made, Barr. Caleb Mutfwang challenged Governor Lalong to produce the documents he claims to have, or prepare to meet him in court, even as Lalong's immunity as Governor is fast expiring on 29th May, 2023.

"Yesterday the Governor of Plateau State was in Wase and he did not have anything to campaign on, except to tell lies against Caleb Mutfwang.

"And I want to challenge Governor Lalong in the same Wase, that if he is not a coward, let him produce the documents that prove that I did not pay salaries for 10months.

"Let me inform you that I have instructed my lawyers today. He will be hearing from my lawyers very soon. If he does not refute that allegation, we will meet in court. And let him remember that his immunity expires on the 29th of May. Thereafter, he will have no hiding place.

Barr. Caleb Mutfwang also challenged the gubernatorial candidate of the APC, Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda, who stands to profit from Governor Lalong's malicious fabrication, against the PDP guber candidate, to refute the allegation.

"And let me challenge my colleague the APC gubernatorial candidate. If he does not refute what Governor Lalong said, then it means he has endorsed a lie. And Plateau does not need liars on the throne".

It would be recalled that the Local Government Service Commission under Mr Fabian Ntung (The current Chairman Plateau State Independent Electoral Commission, PLASIEC), when Mutfwang was Chairman of Mangu LGA, was responsible for paying salaries of workers in the 17 Local Government Areas of the State.

It would also be recalled that Governor Simon Lalong unlawfully removed Barr. Caleb Mutfwang from office on assumption of office as Governor in 2015. Mutfwang and other democratically elected Local Government Chairmen in the State were only 1year and 3months in office out of a 3year-tenure, when they were illegally removed.

To this date, the Plateau State Government's Local Government Service Commission under Governor Simon Lalong, a Lawyer by training, still owes Barr. Caleb Mutfwang salaries of his last 2 months in office.

*****************************

The tour...

Before the town hall meeting, Barr. Caleb Mutfwang, his running mate, Hon. Josephine Piyo, the State Party Chairman, Hon. Chris Hassan, the Director General Atiku/Mutfwang Campaign Council, Chief Letep Dabang, and a team of distinguished candidates for various positions in the Southern Zone and stakeholders, toured Wase LGA, engaging with the people and delivering the message of hope to the nooks and crannies of the area, as incapsulated in PDP's vision for the State.

With the blessings of the Emir of Wase, His Royal Highness, Alh. (Dr) Muhammadu Sambo Haruna, the team proceeded to pay homage to the Ponzhi Kadarko 1, Chief Lot Nden, and his people, at his palace in Kadarko.

The visit to the Aku of Mavo Palace was a mesmerizing spectacle that exceeded the expectations of the team. A jubilant crowd of enthusiastic residents escorted the august visitors into the village, where an equally joyous crowd was waiting, all in a fashion reminiscent of the biblical triumphant entry.

Having received royal blessings from HRH Muhammed Tafida Asi, the Aku of Mavo, Barr. Caleb Mutfwang met the people of the Jukun Kingdom on the Plateau, outside the gates of the palace, where he showed them the vision he has of a peaceful and prosperous Plateau State.

In Bashar, the Rekna of Bashar HRH Muhammadu Abdullahi Idris, in a warm and friendly manner, welcomed the team to his palace, and opened the gates of his domain for the team to meet his people. He treated the team to a brief reception, and presented a strong and healthy ram to the governorship candidate, while wishing him well on his way to having a date with destiny.

Earlier, the team was at the palace of the Hakimin Lamba HRH Usman Adamu Manzo. The governorship hopeful met with the traditional council, and interfaced with a cross section of community leaders, and residents.

Overall, the generosity of the Rekna of Bashar was symbolic, as it represents the beginning of a new era of brotherhood on the Plateau. It is the essence of the vision of Barr. Caleb Mutfwang, to unite and rebuild the State for peace and prosperity.
