Governor Nasir Idris of Kebbi State has clinched the governorship ticket of the All Progressives Congress for a second term after emerging as the party’s sole candidate in a unanimous affirmation by delegates from all 225 wards across the state.
The affirmation, held on Thursday at the Haliru Abdu Stadium in Birnin Kebbi, turned into a massive show of support for the governor, popularly known as “Kauran Gwandu,” as party faithful endorsed his return for the 2027 governorship election.
Chairman of the APC Governorship Primary Election Committee, Abdulmalik Mahmud, said the committee arrived in Kebbi only to formalise a decision already taken by party members across the state.
“Our work here is very simple because the people of Kebbi, especially APC members, have already decided,” Mahmud declared.
