Kebbi APC Stakeholders Back Idris for Second Term

Major stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kebbi State have expressed confidence in the re-election of Governor Nasir Idris in the 2027 governorship election.

The latest endorsement was made by the Managing Director of the Hydroelectric Power Producing Areas Development Commission (HYPPADEC) and APC stakeholder in the state, Alhaji Abubakar Yelwa.

Yelwa spoke during an interaction with the Kebbi State Governor’s Media Team in Abuja on Monday.

The media team is currently on a nationwide advocacy and engagement tour of major media organisations and critical stakeholders to highlight the achievements of the Idris administration.

Yelwa said his confidence in the governor’s re-election was based on what he described as “unprecedented development” recorded across various sectors of the state within the first two years of the administration.

According to him, people from different sectors and communities have continued to visit Birnin Kebbi to appreciate the governor for what he described as the transformation of the state’s socio-economic fortunes.

He said the administration’s interventions in infrastructure, education, healthcare, agriculture and other sectors had positively impacted residents.

Yelwa urged the people of Kebbi to sustain their support for the governor, saying continuity was necessary to consolidate the gains recorded by the administration.

The APC stakeholder also expressed optimism that the governor would secure another term based on the level of support he had received from party members and residents across the state.

Idris became governor of Kebbi State in 2023 on the platform of the APC and has already secured the party’s ticket for the 2027 governorship election after emerging as its sole candidate in a unanimous affirmation by delegates from all 225 wards across the state.
