Governor Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State has declared that his administration will not negotiate with terrorists or criminal elements, insisting that the government will sustain ongoing security operations to restore lasting peace across the state.

Mutfwang made the declaration on Friday in Jos while speaking during a Democracy Day Town Hall Meeting, where he also highlighted key interventions of his administration in agriculture, water infrastructure, security and social services.

He maintained that engaging or negotiating with criminals remained off the table, stressing that security agencies must continue to take decisive action against perpetrators.
