The newly elected Chairmen in the 16 local government councils of Taraba state have been sworn in by the Taraba State governor, Darius Ishaku.
The ceremony took place at the Government Lodge in Takum, the governor’s hometown.
The 16 council chairmen emerged in the elections held on Tuesday and were all of the People’s Democratic Party.
Gov. Ishaku told the chairmen that their election was based on merit and the level of their contributions to the state in the past.

Responding on behalf of the chairmen, the former ALGON Chairman in the state and the Chairman, Jalingo local government council,  Hon. Abdul-Nasil Bobboji, thanked the Governor and the people of the state for finding them worthy of such challenge, even as he assured that they would not betray the confidence reposed in them.
