| *Gov. Danbaba Suntai |
The 24 members of the Taraba State House of Assembly on Tuesday evening declined to disclose the details of their “meeting” with the state governor, Danbaba Suntai.
The lawmakers had resolved at their sitting earlier Wednesday to meet with Mr. Suntai this evening to confirm his true state of health before taking any position on his letter stating his intention to resume office.
Journalists, who were asked to wait at the Assembly complex for the lawmakers to go meet with the governor, were stunned when the lawmakers returned, held a brief closed-door meeting, and told journalists they would only speak to the press on Thursday.
The lawmakers did not confirm whether or not they were allowed to meet the governor.
Meanwhile, a video was played on Wednesday evening on Taraba State TV of the governor swearing in the newly appointed Secretary to the State Government and Chief of Staff to the governor.
A Jalingo-based journalist informed Us that reporters were not allowed to cover the event.
He said Mr. Suntai, was also heard in the video telling residents in Hausa language, that “nagode muku da adu’a,” which means ‘I thank you for your prayers’.
