… A new date to be announce
By Emmanuel Awari-Jalingo
Taraba State Governor, Agbu Kefas has shifted his scheduled defection to the All Progressive Congress (APC) over the unfortunate incident that led to the kidnapped of school girls in Kebbi state.
The governor noted that he is prioritizing humanity over politics and a new date for his defection rally would be announced.
“In the light of the deeply troubling situation of the kidnap of innocent school girls in Kebbi state, I have taken the solemn decision to postpone my scheduled movement to APC.
“At a moment when our nation is once again confronted with the painful reality of insecurity, solidarity and compassion must rise above politics.
“The safety of our children, the must vulnerable and precious members of our society is far more important than any political activity or ceremony.
“Today my heart is with the families of the abducted children and the government and people of Kebbi state and every Nigerian who feels the weight of this tragic incident, especially President Bola Tinubu.
“As a governor who has promised security, education and protection of the vulnerable, I believe it is morally right and nationally responsible to suspend all political events until the situation receives the urgent attention it deserves. “
He further called on security operatives to intensify efforts to ensure the safe return of the girls.
