PLATEAU FOREIGN BASED FOOTBALLERS VISITS GOVERNOR CALEB MUTFWANG

The Chairman of Plateau Football Association (PFA), Hon. Dr. Suleiman Yahaya Kwande yesterday led a group of Plateau State foreign based players to pay homage to His Excellency, The Executive Governor of Plateau State, Barrister Caleb Mannaseh Mutfwang.

The courtesy visit was indeed a historic moment being the first time a group of Plateau State footballers based abroad will come together to pay a courtesy call on the Chief Executive, discussing their future and seeking guidance in their careers.

The Governor graciously took time to advise them as a father, encouraged and challenged them to be good ambassadors of the state anywhere they are playing,  remembering where they come from and those looking up to them as role models.

The PFA Chairman, Hon. Dr. Suleiman Yahaya Kwande expressed deep appreciation to His Excellency, Barrister Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang, for accommodating them even with the short notice despite his busy schedules.

Honourable commissioner for Youths and Sports, Hon. Musa Ashoms was also at the government house.

The list of Plateau foreign based footballers who met with the youth and sports-loving Governor are:
1. Hilary Gong - Widz Low FC in Poland from Jos South

2. Akila Jesse - FC Van in Armenia, from Kanke LGC

3. Godfrey Stephen Bitok - Gaziantep FK in Turkey from Pankshin LGC 

4. Kabgat Andrew David - KF Rilindja 1974 in Kosovo, from Pankshin 

5. Beji Amos Anthony - Naft Al-Wasat FC in Iraq, from Pankshin LGC 

6. Reuben Yem - AS Trencin in Slovakia, from Jos 

7. Maviram Emmanuel - CD Tondela in Portugal, from Jos North 

8. Tenton Yenne - FC Baltika in Russia from Bassa LGC 

9. Haggai Katou - Alashkert Yerevan in Armenia from Pankshin.

This type of synergy is a moral booster for the upcoming footballers on the Plateau. Having a youth loving governor, a sports oriented commissioner for sports and a purposeful driven P.F.A Chairman, ofcourse The Time is Now!
