Taraba governor receives APC membership card weeks after announcing defection

Governor Agbu Kefas of Taraba state has confirmed his membership of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

In a social media post few minute ago, Kefas announced that he has received his APC membership card from Umaru Tanko, chairman of the APC hospital ward in Wukari local government area.

He expressed appreciation for the reception accorded him by party executives and members in Taraba state and thanked the APC leadership and members for what he described as a warm welcome.

“Not so long ago, I received my All Progressives Congress (APC) membership card from Hon. Umaru Tanko, the Chairman of the APC Hospital Ward in Wukari LGA. I appreciate the warm welcome from the executives and members of the APC in Taraba state,” he said.

The governor announced his defection to the ruling party a few weeks ago, while reception to formally receive him was postponed by the APC after a series of security crisis in the country.
