The 2023 Taraba State gubernatorial election was held on 18 March 2023, to elect the governor of Taraba State, concurrent with elections to the Taraba State House of Assembly as well as twenty-seven other gubernatorial elections and elections to all other state houses of assembly. The election, which was postponed from its original 11 March date, was held three weeks after the presidential election and National Assembly elections. Incumbent PDP Governor Darius Ishaku was term-limited and could not seek re-election to a third term. Kefas Agbu held the office for the PDP by defeating NNPP nominee Muhammad Sani Yahaya. Party primaries were scheduled for between 4 April and 9 June 2022 with the Peoples Democratic Party nominating Agbu on 25 May while the All Progressives Congress nominated Senator for Taraba South Emmanuel Bwacha on 26 May. Two prolonged court battles challenged the APC primary with one case successfully nullifying the primary through a High Court ruling on 14 November 2022; however, the other case reached higher courts faster and culminated in the Supreme Court also nullifying the primary on 1 February 2023 before ordering a rerun to be conducted. The APC conducted a new primary on 10 February that resulted in Bwacha winning again. On 21 March, INEC declared Agbu as the victor with official totals showing him winning about 276,000 votes to defeat Yahaya with about 202,000 votes and Bwacha with roughly 143,000 votes. While Bwacha conceded the election, Yahaya rejected the results due to alleged irregularities and filed a challenge at the electoral tribunal. The legal case eventually reached the Supreme Court, which upheld the election of Agbu in a January 2024 judgment.
