The factional National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, has disowned a reported meeting where members of his faction were said to have endorsed the Kebbi State Governor, Nasir Idris, ahead of the 2027 governorship election. The report suggested that the gathering was connected to the Turaki-led faction of the PDP. In Kebbi State, neither the Nyesom Wike-led camp nor the Turaki faction has publicly announced its governorship candidate for the 2027 election. The reported endorsement of Governor Idris had therefore generated interest, particularly amid uncertainty over the PDP’s eventual candidate in the state. However, Turaki’s denial means that no endorsement of the Kebbi governor can presently be attributed to his faction.
