Taraba governor, Kefas shops for cabinet members

By Musa Baba Adamu

There are high indications that the governor of Taraba, Agbu Kefas, will soon unveil the list of his cabinet members.
This was observed following the high level of consultations presently going on in the state, especially between the relevant stakeholders and the chieftains of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The Governor was said to have already reached out to the party and other relevant stakeholders about his plans to form his cabinet.
Taraba PDP chairman, Abubakar Bawa, also confirmed that the governor has communicated his plans to the party.
Bawa affirmed that the governor tasked the party to reach out to stakeholders at both the local government and ward levels to source capable hands that will form his cabinet.
The governor’s directives, he said, have led the leadership of the party to engage the services of traditional rulers spread across the nooks and crannies of the state for the assignment.
Apart from engaging monarchs for the assignment of sourcing for cabinet members, religious bodies have also been reached out to.
Bawa, who noted that the governor is in dire need of quality representation, urged all the institutions consulted to set aside their religious and tribal differences and come out with the best hands that will assist the governor in galvanising the state to greater heights.
Should the governor stick to his words, 80% of those presently being shopped to constitute the cabinet would be young men and women.
