The gathering brought together key stakeholders, including the Local Government Chairman, Hon. Dauda Sama’ila Agbu, Wukari LG Security Chiefs, Kingmakers, Council of Advisers, District, Village, and Ward Heads, Religious Leaders, Youth and Women Leaders, civil society representatives, and rights groups.
The main objective of the meeting was to discuss and provide feedback on the policies and programmes of the Taraba state government under the leadership of Governor Agbu Kefas.
At the end of the discussions, the Aku Uka addressed the public, urging them to refrain from participating in the upcoming planned protest.
He stressed that Wukari and Taraba State as a whole have not yet fully recovered from the previous #EndSARS protests hence the need to shun the planned Protest.
Dr Ishaku Adda Ali noted that Governor Agbu Kefas is committed to the state’s development and has concrete plans for its improvement.
He therefore appealed for restraint and cooperation with those in authority, reiterating his commitment and dedication to the stability and progress of Wukari and Taraba State in general.
