KEBBi State Governor, Nasir Idris, has announced that President Bola Tinubu will embark on a two-day state visit to Kebbi to commission projects executed by his administration.
News Point Nigeria reports that Governor Idris revealed that the President will also attend the Argungu International Fishing and Cultural Festival, scheduled to be held from February 11 to 14.
Speaking on Sunday while receiving defectors from other political parties who joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) from Jega Local Government Area, Governor Idris urged citizens to welcome the President.
“I urge all citizens of Kebbi State to come out en masse to welcome Mr President. Because of his tight schedule, he may not be able to commission all the projects executed by our administration, but he will commission some historic ones,” he said.
The governor also highlighted that participants from across Nigeria and beyond are expected to attend the Argungu International Fishing Festival.
On the recent political defections, Governor Idris commended the newcomers for their foresight and assured them of equal treatment within the APC.
He further noted that his administration has executed several development projects in the Jega Local Government Area and pledged to sustain its development drive across the state.
