Dr Bulus Maiyaki, Secretary, Directorate of Grassroots Engagement and Mobilisation for North East under the Presidential Campaign Council for Tinubu 2027, has donated five transformers to some communities in Southern Taraba.
Maiyaki announced this on Wednesday while presenting the transformers to representatives of the benefiting communities in Jalingo.
He said the gesture was to boost electricity supply in those communities, adding that more such interventions were coming if the tempo of support for Tinubu and Kefas is sustained.

Maiyaki, who is the Deputy Director General of Gov. Agbu Kefas Moving Forward Campaign Council in Southern Taraba, added that voting for the APC from top to bottom would be another catalyst to attract more power interventions to communities across Southern Taraba.
Maiyaki further promised 1,000 solar street lights and solar home systems to communities that would support APC from top to bottom in the forthcoming general elections.
He said he had donated 5,000 solar street lights, 31 transformers and many Solar Home Systems to various communities in the region, especially those communities that did not have access to power supply.
“To me, power is not just about light, it is about life, business, education and dignity and I believe that when a community has light, its children can read at night, its traders can preserve their goods, and its youths can learn a trade.
“I am donating these transformers to the communities not only to further strengthen the resolve in re-electing Tinubu and Kefas, but as a call for them to join the ongoing campaign championed by my humble self.
“This is aimed and targeted at consolidating the Renewed Hope Agenda achievements of President Tinubu and the Moving Forward Agenda of Governor Kefas.”
According to him, he has donated a total of 31 transformers and 5,000 solar streetlights and solar home systems across the Local Government Areas of Southern Taraba, including Wukari, Ibi and Takum.
He said the communities that benefited from his gesture included Nyita, Nyigben, Nyivu Manya, Marraraba and Ussa.
Representatives of the communities who spoke at the event lauded his interventions, saying they were practical rather than mere promises. According to them, wherever his name is mentioned, people say, here comes a man who does not promise light, he delivers light.
Mr Solomon Audu, one of the leaders who spoke to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), commended Maiyaki for donating a transformer to his community. He said the gesture would help improve the community’s electricity supply and stability.
