    Gov. Agbu Kefas inspects TSBS and TTV, pledges transformation of facilities

    Governor Agbu Kefas has inspected facilities at the Taraba State Broadcasting Service (TSBS) and Taraba Television Corporation (TTV), pledging to rehabilitate and transform the state-owned media organisations for improved service delivery.

    Gov Agbu Kefas made separate visits to the two stations on Wednesday, where he toured various departments and assessed their infrastructure, equipment and working environment.

    The Governor said his administration was committed to upgrading the facilities of TSBS and TTV to the required standard and strengthening their capacity to provide quality and effective public service.

    He commended the management and staff of both organisations for their dedication and resilience, noting that they had continued to keep the stations operational despite the challenges confronting them.

    During the visits, Gov Agbu Kefas also went on air at both TSBS and TTV, where he spoke on the achievements of his administration in key sectors, including security, education and other areas of development.

    He emphasised the important role of state-owned media in informing, educating and connecting government with the people, stressing that improved facilities and a motivated workforce would enhance the organisations’ effectiveness.

    The inspection, according to the Governor, was part of his administration’s broader commitment to rehabilitating and repositioning the state’s media institutions for greater impact.

    Gov. Agbu Kefas takes delivery of 188 housing units, a national first

    Governor Agbu Kefas officially took delivery of 188 completed housing units under the Muhammadu Buhari National Housing Programme. The handover was performed by the Minister of Housing and Urban Development, Dr. Muttaqha Rabe Darma.

    This is a huge win, especially as the state works to accommodate personnel of its new military formations.

    The Federal Government also announced a new Social Housing Initiative to make affordable homes available to more Nigerians.

    The administration thanked the Federal Government for this investment in Taraba, and called for more housing projects to be sited across the state.

    Importantly, Taraba has been recognised as the first state to respond to the Ministry’s call to take over completed units, proof of the administration’s commitment to delivering results for the people.

    The promise remains: the administration will provide the environment and welfare that Tarabans deserve.
