The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), has lauded the giant strides recorded by Kebbi State Governor, Comrade Nasir Idris, particularly in strengthening security and transforming the state’s infrastructure as well as human development in the last two years.
This was made on Tuesday in Birnin Kebbi when the leadership of the Forum paid a courtesy visit to Governor Nasiru Idris at Government House, Birnin Kebbi.
Speaking, ACF Chairman, Board of Trustees (BOT), Alhaji Bashir Dalhatu Waziri Dutse, said the Forum was impressed with the Governor’s achievements in improving security and executing numerous developmental projects across the state.
He explained that although ACF is non-partisan, it plays a key role in Nigeria’s political activities by protecting the interests of the North, a mandate it has pursued since its establishment 25 years ago.
Wazirin Dutse commended the Governor for supporting security agencies, which he said had significantly boosted the fight against insecurity in Kebbi.
Also speaking, the ACF Chairman, Mr. Mamman Mike Osuman, SAN, lauded Gov. Idris’ bold steps in tackling banditry and other security challenges, while pledging the Forum’s readiness to collaborate with Northern Governors and the FCT to drive development in the region.
Responding, Governor Idris expressed delight at receiving the ACF delegation and reiterated his commitment to govern diligently and patriotically for the benefit of the people.
He described ACF as a strong partner in the progress of Kebbi and the North, assuring continued support for the Forum.
The Governor said, Kebbi had recorded progress in agriculture, education, infrastructure, and security in the last two years of his administration.
