Over the past year, Kebbi State Governor Comrade Dr. Nasir Idris has made outstanding progress in transforming the state, particularly the state capital.
Since assuming office, Governor Idris has implemented various initiatives to boost internally generated revenue and ensure the state is better equipped to meet the needs of its people.
One of the key areas of focus for Governor Idris has been enhancing revenue collection in the state.
By implementing effective measures and strategies, the Governor has been able to significantly increase the state’s revenue generation capabilities.
This has allowed the government to allocate more resources towards critical development projects and services for the people of Kebbi State.
In addition to improving revenue collection, Governor Idris has also prioritized security in the state, particularly in the southern region where farmers were facing significant challenges.
By implementing comprehensive security measures and working closely with security agencies, Governor Idris has been able to restore peace and safety in the area.
Today, farmers can now go about their work without fear, contributing to the overall development and prosperity of the state.
Governor Idris has also invested in infrastructure development, particularly in the state capital of Birnin Kebbi.
The rehabilitation and construction of roads, roundabouts, an ultra-modern motor park, secretariat complex, and feeder roads are all part of the Governor’s efforts to modernize the capital and make it comparable to other state capitals in the country.
Furthermore, Governor Idris has fulfilled his campaign promises by providing full employment to those in casual jobs in the state civil service.
This has not only reduced unemployment in the state but has also improved the living standards of many families.
Additionally, the health sector in Kebbi State continues to receive the Governor’s attention, ensuring that quality healthcare services are accessible to all residents.
In recognition of the importance of traditional institutions, Governor Idris recently approved the creation of two additional districts and appointed new district heads in the state.
Similarly, the Governor has also approved the creation of new village areas and appointed village heads, demonstrating his commitment to preserving and promoting the cultural heritage of the state.
Without a doubt, Governor Idris has made significant strides in transforming Kebbi State in his last year in office.
From boosting revenue collection, enhancing security, and investing in infrastructure and human capital development, Governor Idris has shown strong leadership and dedication to improving the lives of the people of Kebbi State.
His visionary approach and proactive governance have set the state on a path towards greater prosperity and development.
