He said that the history of Takum as advanced by the Kuteb people was false and only known to those trying to cause trouble.

“They are the people of the hills and cannot lay claim to the sole ownership of Takum,” he said.

Danjuma  advised Kefas to be ready to face more litigations, on the Chieftancy issue, assuring him  that he would win over falsehood.

He urged  the young people in the area to go to school and acquire knowledge that would  be beneficial to the community.

While congratulating Ahmadu on his ascension to the throne of his great grand fathers, he Called on him to see it as a call to service and treat all people equally.

Gov. Kefas recalled the challenges on the way to reconciliation, fairness and unity, appealing to  the people to give peace a chance.

“Today, we bring peace and unity to Takum. As the  chief of Takum you  must rule with integrity and respect for all.

“This is not a  moment of victory, but a moment for shared prosperity and great future for Takum.

Godwin Obaseki of Edo, called on the people of Taraba to embrace peace to harness the God’s given resources and talents of the state.

“Today marks the beginning of a new dawn and prosperity in Takum and Taraba

“With the inauguration of the new chief of Takum, prosperity and peace will be restored and the people will be happy.

In his vote of thanks, Chief Ahmadu the new chief call on all to join hands, forget the differences to build Takum.

He pledged to focus on security to ensure that  peace was accelerated for the good of the land.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Takum Chieftancy tool, usually  referred to  as Ukwe Takum and  and strictly reserved for the Kuteb ruling house  has now been changed  by a law assented to by Gov. Kefas.

The tool is to now to rotate among the Chamba, Kuteb and Kpanzu peoples of Takum.

NAN recalls that the Kuteb people in a press conference recently rejected the rotation arrangement, saying they would not recognise the new chief, who is of Chamba extraction. (NAN)
