The Taraba State Elections Petition Tribunal sitting in Abuja has declared Aisha Jummai Alhassan of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the duly elected governor of the state, thereby sacking Darius Ishaku of the Peoples Democratic Party.
Mrs Alhassan fondly called Mama Taraba is thus set to become the first elected female governor in Nigeria.
Mama Taraba who was recently cleared by the Senate to be a minister participated in the just concluded retreat for Ministers-designate organized by the presidency in Abuja.
However, it is expected that Ishaku will appeal the verdict of the tribunal.
