Taraba State government yesterday called for the inclusion of sub-nationals in various government development plans, saying this is expedient for all-round development.
The Commissioner for Budget and Economic Planning, Solomon Elisha who spoke at the ongoing zonal technical meeting of Medium-Term National Development Plan (2021-2025) said Governor Darius Ishaku had rescued the state from total decay of neglect.
Addressing the gathering at the Gombe International Hotel in Gombe State, Solomon said the parley would afford all states to showcase their achievements while contributing to the Federal Government’s agenda 2050.
“It’s expedient that sub-nationals are given the opportunity to contribute towards this plan.
“We shall make judicious use of this opportunity; we shall ensure that Taraba State not previously captured is now captured in both the Federal Government’s 2021-2025 and that of 2050 agenda,” he said.
He later told reporters that his principal met many moribund government projects on the assumption of office, saying: “Governor Ishaku has made do with his “rescue mission in the state.”
