Vice President Kashim Shettima, 10 governors, accompanied by at least 13 private jets were in Jalingo-the Taraba State capital for the wedding between the Taraba governor’s daughter, Keziah Agbu Kefas and Bitrus Josiah Agbu.
The roll call of those governors present were: Adamawa State governor, Ahmadu Fintiri; Plateau State governor, Caleb Muftwang; Bauchi State governor, Bala Mohammed; Edo State governor, Godwin Obaseki; Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara; Zamfara State governor, Dauda Lawal; Borno State governor, Umaru Zulum; Delta State governor Sheriff Oborevwori; Enugu State governor, Peter Mbah; and Kogi State governor, Usman Ododo.
The dignitaries held a dinner yesterday night after the PDP Governors’ Forum meeting. In attendance was Governor Usman Ododo of Kogi State, who won the Supreme Court judgement against SDP’s Mohammed Ajaka, a situation that attracted media attention.
Meanwhile, the entire Jalingo city was shut down by the presence of dignitaries as all decent hotels were fully booked for guests.
The entire Jolly Nyame Stadium, the venue of the occasion, was occupied by guests and onlookers of what has been widely perceived as the grandest occasion in the history of the State.
