 Airport Closure Prevents 19 Senators from Attending Taraba Event – Jimkuta


Senator David Jimkuta (Taraba South) has revealed that 19 senators were unable to attend his Senatorial Empowerment Programme in Wukari due to the temporary closure of Kashimbilla Airport in Taraba State.


Speaking at the event on Tuesday, Jimkuta explained that flight arrangements had been finalized, but the lawmakers were later informed that their landing permits had been denied due to the airport shutdown.


The senator, who chairs the Senate Committee on FCT Area Councils, expressed disappointment, noting that the senators’ presence would have allowed them to assess the needs of the people and provide necessary support.


Jimkuta advised beneficiaries to utilize the distributed items rather than selling them and pledged to provide logistical support to security agencies in the district.


Chief David Kente, who chaired the occasion, praised the empowerment initiative as historic for the district.


Distributed items included cars, motorcycles, tricycles, sewing machines, deep freezers, and vulcanizing machines.
