Governor Caleb Mutfwang has urged all appointees serving in his government to be hard-working and productive toward better service delivery.

The governor said this on Monday at the ongoing annual retreat for government officials held at the Miango Rest Home, Bassa LGA.

Mr Mutfwang, who harped on commitment and dedication to duty, called on all government officials to put in their best for the greater good of the state.

“It behoves us to be grateful to God for this opportunity to serve our people. We must not waste it.

“I want all of you to know that we are on a mission to serve the people of Plateau, so we must grow higher in our productivity and output. We cannot achieve that by accident; we must be deliberate, intentional, and hard-working,” he said.

The governor said that the one-week-long activity would allow participants to reflect on putting Plateau on a steady growth and development path.

“As we gather for this one week, I appeal to you to lay aside everything else and commit to the duty you have been assigned to do. No one knows it all, so we must settle down, utilising the opportunity given to us to serve the people.

“It is a privilege to serve; the Plateau people have entrusted us with their mandate, and we must not take it for granted,” he said.
