The APC Youth Vanguard is voicing a concern about the impact of Governor Agbu Kefas’s foreign trips on the state’s development. While the governor has traveled to several countries with the intention of exploring investment opportunities, the group believes the returns haven’t been as substantial as expected. Their criticism centers on the financial burden of such trips, especially considering the ₦6.5 billion spent last year, and they argue that this money could be better allocated to more direct initiatives that benefit local communities, such as infrastructure and job creation.
This call for reassessment emphasizes the importance of accountability and the need for tangible results. The group’s focus on local development projects reflects a desire for practical improvements that can visibly affect the daily lives of Taraba residents.
It will be interesting to see how the governor responds and whether there will be any adjustments in approach moving forward. What are your thoughts on the situation?
