Taraba Governor Kefas joins APC
By Sylvanus Viashima, Jalingo
Taraba State Governor, Dr Agbu Kefas, has officially registered as a member of the All Progressives Congress APC after resigning from the PDP.
Kefas was registered by the APC Hospital Ward executive at the Government House in Jalingo, the state capital.
Speaking after his registration and the presentation of his membership card, the governor said that though he had earlier announced the suspension of his official defection ceremony, originally slated for November 19, in solidarity with abducted schoolgirls, he had decided to take the necessary step to enable him to fully take charge of party activities in the state.

“I have already written to the party at the ward level, and today’s exercise is a necessary step to fulfil the basic requirements. You will recall that I earlier suspended my official reception into the party following the abduction of schoolgirls in Kebbi State.
Even if the official ceremony had been held, this registration is one of the necessary things we must do. I want to thank my ward party executives and the representatives of the state working committee of the party who are here,” he said.
