Taraba Polytechnic disowns publication on proposed relocation to Suntai

Taraba State Polytechnic management disowned a publication titled “Jalingo Residents Oppose Polytechnic Relocation,” saying it was AI-generated and did not represent the institution’s official position. In a November 2, 2026 disclaimer signed by public relations officer Varisca E. Habila, the polytechnic said it neither authored, approved nor endorsed the article. Management said it did not recognise the people shown as students or the gate pictured as belonging to the institution, while noting these observations were subject to verification. It urged the public to disregard the publication and reaffirmed its support for Governor Agbu Kefas’s education agenda.
