Taraba gov, APC chair meet Tinubu

Taraba State Governor Agbu Kefas yesterday met with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, in a closed-door session.

Also present was the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda.

Governor Kefas recently left the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to join the APC. The two leaders arrived at the Presidential Villa at about 2:30 p.m., though the outcome of their discussions has not been disclosed.

Daily Trust learnt that the talks may have focused on agreeing a new, favourable date for Governor Kefas and his supporters to be formally received into the party.

The Taraba governor’s official grand entry into the APC had been scheduled for November 19, but security concerns, particularly the recent abduction of schoolgirls in Kebbi State, led to the postponement of the ceremony.

The defection has already seen the Speaker of the Taraba State House of Assembly and 15 lawmakers leave the PDP for the APC, citing crises at the national level.
