The traditional ruler of Sarkin Kudu Chiefdom in Ibi Local Government Council of Taraba State, Ibrahim Adamu Sale, on Saturday, lauded Governor Agbu Kefas for successfully tackling kidnapping, banditry, and other criminal activities in the area.

In his Eid-el-Kabir message, the third-class chief expressed gratitude on behalf of the people of Sarkin Kudu, acknowledging the significant improvement in security since Governor Kefas assumed office.

“Before the administration of Governor Agbu Kefas, the situation here was dire. Kidnappers frequently targeted our people, demanding ransoms and making it unsafe for farmers to access their lands,” Sale said.

He noted that enhanced security measures implemented by the governor have restored peace and stability in the community.
