Kebbi Governor Nasir Idris endorses President Tinubu for second term, citing infrastructure and energy projects

The endorsement was made during a ceremony organized by the Tinubu Support Organisation in Birnin Kebbi, where supporters also backed Governor Idris for re-election. Governor Idris stated that Kebbi State has significantly benefited from federal projects under President Tinubu's leadership, demonstrating a strong commitment to national development. He expressed pride that Kebbi was among the first states to declare support for the President's second-term ambition.

The National Leader of the Tinubu Support Organisation, Aminu Suleiman, thanked the governor for his support and announced plans to extend the endorsement campaign to other states. This early endorsement by a sitting governor, more than a year before the 2027 general elections, reflects a coordinated effort by the APC to secure backing from state-level leaders, particularly in the North-West, a region of significant electoral strength for the party. Kebbi State, a reliable APC stronghold and a major rice-producing state, holds strategic importance for its political loyalty and economic contributions.
