Dr Nasiru Idris, the newly elected governor of Kebbi State, and his deputy, Abubakar Tafida, have received their Certificate of Return.
Idris, who received the certificate on Wednesday at the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) headquarters in Birnin Kebbi, promised to complete all projects left unfinished by his predecessor’s administration, Governor Abubakar Atiku Bagudu.
He also promised to improve the state capital, Birnin Kebbi. He went on to say that he was ready to turn the state’s economy around and ensure that farmers in the troubled southern part of the state returned to their farms after he was sworn in.
The governor-elect stated that the people of Kebbi State deserve a good life because they work hard and are dedicated to the state’s progress.
“Today is a great day for me because Kebbi is making history. I want to thank people of the state for believing in me and our party, APC, I promise that the mandate given to me would not be in vain and I will fulfill all promise made,” he said.
