Malami's Brother Supports APC Governor's Re-election Bid in Kebbi State, Sparks Political Rift

Almustapha Malami, the younger brother of former Attorney General of the Federation, San Malami, has surprised many by backing the re-election bid of APC Governor Nasir Idri in Kebbi State. This move has opened a political rift within the Malami family due to their long-standing political rivalry.

Despite political pressures, Almustapha Malami emphasized that his decision was voluntary and without external influence. The Kebbi State APC Chairman, Muham Kana Zuru, welcomed Almustapha Malami's support for Governor Idri, describing it as a sign of political maturity and assuring protection within the party's structure for the defector ahead of the 2027 elections.
