The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Taraba State is celebrating a significant political development as Governor Agbu Kefas prepares to defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the APC. This move marks a major breakthrough for the party after more than a decade of political struggle in the state.
According to Taraba APC Chairman Barrister Ibrahim El‑Sudi, the governor’s decision fulfills a long‑awaited dream. He said the party’s prayers and efforts have finally paid off, not through the electoral process but through what he described as “divine intervention.” El‑Sudi confirmed that the governor’s defection is no longer a rumor; it is a finalized political realignment sealed by President Bola Tinubu and officially communicated to the party’s national leadership.
The formal ratification of Kefas’ defection is scheduled for November 4, 2025, in Jalingo, the state capital, where all party stakeholders will gather to officially welcome the governor to the APC. This development is seen as a turning point, ending years of political marginalization and ushering in a new chapter for Taraba State. Party loyalists are expected to converge on Jalingo to celebrate what is being described as a historic moment in the state’s political journey.
The APC’s leadership attributes this success to patience, unity, and faith, believing these qualities have ultimately paid off. With the formal ratification imminent, the APC is poised to exert control over the state government, and attention will focus on Taraba’s future direction and the potential impact of this new political alignment on the region. The people of Taraba State now await the next steps in this evolving political landscape.
