The Kebbi State Forum of Special Advisers has donated 11 vehicles, eight motorcycles and 7,000 wrappers of Atampa fabric in support of the political aspirations and successful re-election campaign of Governor Comrade Dr. Nasir Idris, Kauran Gwandu, ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The presentation took place at the Government House, Birnin Kebbi, on Tuesday, with the Chairman of the Forum and Special Adviser to the Governor on Pilgrims Matters, Alhaji Zaiyanu Shehu Sanka, presenting the items on behalf of members and other supporters.
Speaking during the presentation, Alhaji Sanka explained that the donation was the product of collective contributions by members of the Forum, individuals and supporters from different local government areas of the state. He disclosed that while some members contributed vehicles, others provided motorcycles, machinery support and financial resources to make the initiative successful.
He further disclosed that the financial contributions amounted to ₦7 million naira.
He expressed appreciation to all contributors, particularly members of the Forum, for their commitment, sacrifice and collective determination to support the Governor’s leadership and political aspirations.
Alhaji Sanka also commended Governor Idris for his leadership, guidance and encouragement, while soliciting his support for an expanded grassroots political empowerment initiative. He expressed his desire to extend the vehicle distribution programme to APC ward chairmen across the state, if given the opportunity, to strengthen the party’s grassroots structures and enhance political mobilisation.
He also appealed to the Governor to extend consideration to Special Advisers who were yet to receive their furniture allowances , so they could benefit from the welfare provisions and support of the Governor .
Responding, Governor Nasir Idris expressed profound appreciation to the Forum and all individuals who contributed to the gesture, describing the donation as a remarkable demonstration of solidarity, unity and collective commitment.
The Governor assured the donors that the items would be put to judicious use in advancing the interests of the people, stressing that every act of goodwill and support must ultimately translate into public benefit.
“Whatever you have brought, whether in terms of support, goodwill or welfare, is not meant to be kept. We will ensure that this goodwill reaches the people. I sincerely appreciate the support you have shown, and we pray that Almighty Allah rewards you abundantly,” the Governor said.
Governor Idris further assured contributors whose outstanding entitlements remained unpaid that the government would take necessary steps to ensure they received their legitimate dues.
“Whoever has not received their payment, particularly those who have contributed and demonstrated cooperation, God willing, we will ensure that they receive their rights. We have the necessary evidence to facilitate the payment,” he assured.
The Governor emphasized the importance of unity, collective participation and sustained grassroots engagement in strengthening the administration’s relationship with the people. He thanked Almighty Allah for the successful presentation and prayed for continued protection, blessings and guidance for the state’s leaders, supporters and residents.
