The Taraba State Government has debunked claims circulating on social and traditional media that the Deputy Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Hamman-Adama Adamu, has been nominated as the new Deputy Governor of the state.
In a strongly worded statement delivered during a press briefing on Tuesday, the Commissioner for Information, Zainab Jalingo, dismissed the report as “false, misleading, and wicked,” stressing that there is no vacancy in the office of the Deputy Governor.
Jalingo reaffirmed that Alhaji Aminu Abdullahi Alkali remains the duly elected Deputy Governor of Taraba State and continues to perform his constitutional duties.
