A massive awareness walk was held in Jalingo Metropolis ahead of the Taraba Investment Summit (Taravest), signaling high-level readiness for the landmark event.
The walk, themed “TARAVEST Walk For Life,” started from the State Ministry of Works Roundabout, proceeded through Barde Way, and concluded at TY Danjuma House.
Members of the Taravest Organizing Committee led the procession, engaging residents and reinforcing the state’s welcoming atmosphere for investors.
The event drew enthusiastic participation from various stakeholders, creating a buzz across the capital city and heightening anticipation for the summit.
Governor Agbu Kefas emphasized that Taraba is secure and ready to host investors from around the world.
This development summit aims to spotlight Taraba’s abundant natural resources and untapped economic potential to a global audience.
The “Walk For Life” was not just symbolic but also strategic, reaffirming the administration’s commitment to inclusive, people-centered development.
Under Governor Kefas’ leadership, Taraba has made deliberate strides in positioning itself as an investment-friendly state with robust infrastructure and peaceful co-existence.
By championing transparency and development, the administration is rewriting the narrative of Taraba as a dormant state into one brimming with opportunity.
Taravest represents a transformative moment for the state, with far-reaching implications for job creation, industrial growth, and improved living standards.
If investor confidence grows as expected, Taraba could emerge as a major hub for agro-processing, tourism, mining, and renewable energy in Nigeria.
The walk and its message illustrate that development in Taraba is no longer abstract—it is visible, participatory, and gaining momentum.
This bold push for investment aligns with Governor Kefas’ vision of a “New Taraba” where prosperity is driven by innovation, collaboration, and sustained peace.
