The All Progressives Congress (APC) has re-elected Alhaji Ibrahim El-Sudi, as its substantive chairman in Taraba state.

Sen. Yusuf Abubakar, the state APC leader said that El-Sudi would lead 35 other state executive members of the party.

Abubakar said, ”With the consent of all critical stakeholders of the party, resolved to go with affirmation rather than election process.

“We are doing affirmation and not election because that is our collective decision.

“I assure you that as the leader of the party in the state, what we are doing here today is the only legitimate congress of APC in Taraba.

”Anything outside here is an illegality that should not be given a second thought.”

Alhaji Tijani Tumsa, Chairman, Congress Committee said, “what is happening here is unprecedented in the state.

“I appreciate the INEC and security agencies that have been very vigilant to ensure that we have a hitch-free exercise.”

In his response, El-Sudi thanked the congress for the confidence reposed on them and urged the people to work for the good of the party.

He assured that his leadership would provide a level playing field for all members to participate actively for the general good of the party.
