<p>President Bola Tinubu on Saturday praised Kebbi State Governor Nasir Idris for executing transformative infrastructure projects, describing him as a &#8220;man of mission and vision&#8221; with the masses&#8217; interests at heart.</p>
<p>The President made the remarks in Birnin Kebbi during the inauguration of an ultra-modern State Secretariat Complex, which the state government named after Tinubu in recognition of his leadership. The visit marked the President&#8217;s first official trip to the state and underscored the strong political ties between the two leaders.</p>
<p>&#8220;I know what you can do. You are a man of mission and vision. I am always proud of you,&#8221; Tinubu said, addressing Governor Idris. He further characterized the Governor as &#8220;a brother, friend and committed leader,&#8221; adding that his sterling performance since assuming office came as no surprise.</p><div class="Dwm0YBw0" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>The President&#8217;s itinerary was packed with commissioning ceremonies as he virtually and physically inaugurated multiple flagship projects that define Idris&#8217;s development agenda. The centrepiece of the visit was the new secretariat complex, a multi-billion-naira project originally initiated in 2012 but revived and completed under Idris&#8217;s administration. The decision to name the facility after President Tinubu was framed as a symbol of the state&#8217;s appreciation for federal support and the President&#8217;s national leadership.</p>

<p>In addition to the secretariat, Tinubu inaugurated the Birnin Kebbi Central Motor Park, a modern transport hub designed to enhance commercial activity and passenger experience, as well as the newly dualised three-lane carriageway along Emir Haruna Road and the dualised Old Argungu By-Pass. He also commissioned the Kauran Gwandu College of Nursing and Midwifery Sciences in Ambursa, a significant addition to the state&#8217;s healthcare education infrastructure.</p>
<p>Beyond the project inaugurations, President Tinubu took time to commend the people of Kebbi State for their sustained support and cooperation with his administration. He noted that such solidarity from the grassroots has been a critical factor in the achievements recorded under Governor Idris&#8217;s leadership.</p>
<p>Reaffirming the Federal Government&#8217;s commitment to collaborative governance, Tinubu pledged unwavering support to states in delivering democratic dividends, particularly in infrastructure, healthcare, and education. &#8220;We will continue to work together to bring more development to our people,&#8221; he assured.</p>
<p>The President&#8217;s one-day official visit coincided with a major cultural moment for the state: the grand finale of the 61st edition of the 2026 Argungu International Fishing and Cultural Festival. Tinubu attended as the Special Guest of Honour, blending governance with the celebration of a heritage event that draws visitors from across Nigeria and beyond.</p>
<p>The visit successfully married political solidarity with development diplomacy, as the President used the platform to both endorse Governor Idris&#8217;s performance and connect with the broader Kebbi electorate ahead of future political cycles.</p>
