Ahead of the 2019 general elections, representatives of 168 wards in Taraba state have picked the nomination and expression of interest forms for a United Nations (UN) Commission official of the Federal Government, Alhaji Aliyu Umar.
The group endorsed Surveyor, Alhaji Aliyu Umar, a former civil servant, Director, Maritime Services and Geo-Information Technology and currently the Desk Officer for Nigeria’s Extended Continental Shelf Project in New York whom the group said will redeem the state from maladministration.
The representatives led by former commissioner for Information in Taraba State Kabiru Jalo said Surveyor Umar is the sole governorship candidate in the state, though with 14 other aspirants vying for the same position under the All Progressives Congress (APC).
