Kebbi State Governor Nasir Idris has publicly endorsed President Bola Tinubu’s re-election campaign, highlighting significant federal investments in infrastructure and renewable energy projects as key reasons for his support. This endorsement, made on June 3, 2026, underscores a growing trend among regional leaders aligning with the current administration ahead of the upcoming elections.

Idris pointed to the enhancement of highway networks and the implementation of renewable energy initiatives as pivotal achievements that have positively impacted Kebbi State. “The federal government’s commitment to improving our infrastructure and energy sector has been a game changer for our people,” said Idris, reinforcing the tangible benefits of Tinubu's policies. These developments not only bolster local economies but also serve as critical leverage for Tinubu’s campaign in a competitive electoral landscape.
