The Taraba State chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ibrahim Tukur, has announced that governor Agbu Kefas will now officially defect to the party in January 2026. The move was earlier postponed due to the Kebbi student kidnap incident.

Speaking in Jalingo, Tukur said the APC has suspended some ward executives for violating the party’s constitution and urged aggrieved members to use internal dispute channels before heading to court. He also overturned the suspension of Taraba Assembly member Abel Peter, earlier punished for alleged anti-party activities.

Tukur dismissed Atiku Abubakar’s claim of reclaiming Taraba State as “a daydream,” insisting the APC has already taken firm control of the state.
