The Acting Governor of Taraba, Alhaji Garba Umar, on Wednesday, said his loyalty to his ailing boss, Gov. Danbaba Suntai, was consistent and unshakable and that he was only holding brief for his principal, pending the time the governor fully recovered and was capable of resuming full duties as governor.
“As a loyal lieutenant, I will continue to hold brief for my boss by staying focused on his master plan for the development of our dear state.
"My resolve to do so is borne out of the need to ensure continuity and completion of the set goals and objectives within the life span of the current administration, started about seven years ago.”
He listed some of his achievements to include the completion of work on Jalingo-Sunkani-Garba Chede Road and the completion and inauguration of Takum General Hospital.
Others, he added, include the connection of Suntai Village, the governor’s country home, to the national grid, as well as the state’s House of Assembly Service Commission Complex.
He urged the state House of Assembly to hasten the approval of the 2014 budget he earlier presented to it so that the process of implementation could begin early in the year.
He also commended security agencies for their roles in maintaining peace in 2013, stressing that the efforts of traditional and religious leaders was remarkable.
