APC Confers Field Marshal Title on Kebbi Governor Idris
On October 20, 2026, Senator Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar, the Director-General of the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council, conferred the title of Kaigama (Field Marshal) on Kebbi State Governor Nasir Idris. This recognition was announced during a visit to Kebbi State as part of the council's nationwide consultations with traditional rulers in preparation for the 2027 general elections.
The honor acknowledges Idris's commitment to the APC, his resilience in governance, and his political mobilization efforts. The Yari-led delegation visited the Emir of Gwandu, Alhaji Muhammadu Bashar, to seek his prayers before the campaign activities.
The delegation received a warm welcome at the Ahmadu Bello International Airport, led by Governor Idris, and continued at the Emir’s palace with a gathering of traders, farmers, and traditional dancers. Yari praised the APC's strength in Kebbi as a result of Idris's leadership and commended President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
Idris attributed the party's success to contributions from prominent leaders and ongoing development projects in the state.
