Kebbi State Governor, Dr. Nasir Idris, has thrown his full weight behind the re-election bid of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, pointing to federal intervention in security, agriculture, and infrastructure across the North-West as the primary drivers of his alignment.
Speaking through his media team, the governor’s office asserted that the synergy between the federal government and Kebbi State has yielded tangible socio-economic gains, making the continuation of the current administration’s policies crucial for the region.
Key Pillars of the Governor’s Support
The statement outlined several core factors underpinning Governor Idris’ endorsement:
-
Agricultural and Food Security Investments: Highlighting federal partnerships in rice production and dry-season farming initiatives that have boosted local farmers’ output in the state.
-
Security Reinforcements: Commending the tactical deployment of military and security assets along border corridors to counter insurgency and banditry in the North-West zone.
-
Infrastructure Synergy: Citing ongoing federal road interventions and border trade facilitation projects linking Kebbi with regional trade networks.
