Kebbi’s governor-elect seeks traditional rulers’ support
Kebbi’s governor-elect, Dr Nasir Idris, has appealed to traditional rulers in the state to shun political differences and support his administration to move the state forward.
Special Adviser to the governor-elect, Alhaji Ahmed Idris, stated on Sunday in Birnin-Kebbi that Dr Idris made the appeal when the District Head of Aliero, Alhaji Umar Dodo, paid him Sallah homage.
Dr Idris said the plea became imperative because of the crucial role played by traditional institutions in smooth governance.
He assured that his administration would operate an open-door policy and would welcome all lovers of Kebbi.
“It is not hidden that not all traditional rulers supported my election. That is not my concern, today, however.

“I will do everything within the law to support traditional rulers in the state,’’ he said and appealed to the latter to support his administration to take Kebbi to greater heights of development.
Earlier, Alhaji Dodo said he and his entourage were on the visit to rejoice with Dr Idris on his victory at the polls.
“We supported you and we shall support your administration to succeed,’’ he assured.
