Governor Darius Ishaku of Taraba State has
expressed appreciation to President Muhammadu
Buhari and the Federal Executive Council for
approving funds for the execution of the Mambilla
Hyro-power Project which is located in the state.
Darius, in a press statement signed by his Senior
Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Bala Dan Abu
said approval of funds for the execution of the
long awaited and highly valued project was an
immense demonstration of Buhari’s political will
to the state.
He said it was highly important to note that the
landmark decision on the project was taken at the
very first Federal Executive Council meeting the
president presided over after his return from
treatment abroad
“It is a historic step, one that many past federal
administrations were unable to take in more than
40 years,” Ishaku stated.
He said people of Taraba State and indeed,
Nigerians in general will forever remember the
administration of Muhammadu Buhari for taking
this crucial step towards the actualisation of one
of the biggest hydro dam projects in Africa.
