I Won’t Allow Any Taraba Citizen Die – Gov Ishaku

Governor of Taraba State, Darius Ishaku has said the safety of lives and property of the citizen of the state is paramount to him as he would rather sacrifice his life than allow their safety to be jeopardized.
Ishaku said that the death of any citizen in the state grieves him. He said: “Perhaps I’m the only one who knows how deeply hurt I feel when I hear of the death of any Taraba citizen due to crisis or, as a matter of fact, for any other reasons.

“Of all the things Taraba people look up to me for, the preservation of their lives and property is number one. If I fail to protect them, then I’ve really failed. So, that’s why I said I would give my life; I would rather be sacrificed than any Taraba person, no matter his tribe, religion or status.
