Taraba Deputy Governor returns to Jalingo after 4-month absence

Alhaji Aminu Alkali, Deputy governor of Taraba State, has returned to Jalingo, the state capital, after an absence of about four months.

Taraba News gathered that the Deputy governor arrived at Danbaba Suntai Airport, Jalingo, in a chartered Aircraft at 1.40pm.

There were no newsmen at the airport at the time of  his  arrival because journalists were not informed ahead.

The absence of a press secretary in the Deputy Governor’s team reportedly contributed to the lack of official information.

The Deputy Governor’s extended absence had sparked speculation in political circles, though no official updates were provided during his time away.
