The Special Adviser on Communication and strategy to the Kebbi State Governor, Abdullahi Idris, has denied allegations that Governor Nasir Idris gives government contracts or positions to political thugs.

Idris called the accusations “cheap and baseless” in a live appearance on TVC News on Tuesday.

He said that in order to make sure that only reliable and competent people are selected, the governor goes through a rigorous screening procedure before appointing people or giving contracts.

“Never, forever. The governor doesn’t give an appointment just like that for political reasons,” he said.

“When the governor wants to give you an appointment, he consults your local government or emirate to check your credibility, sincerity, and honesty.”

Idris maintained that the traditional and religious authorities of Kebbi State are always involved in the process of screening candidates for appointments.

According to the governor’s adviser, the government does not condone or support violence in any way.

According to him, keeping the peace and luring in investment are the top priorities of the administration in order to raise living standards and provide jobs for Kebbi State residents.

“All these words are mere and cheap allegations. The governor’s focus is on building the state, creating opportunities, and ensuring good governance, not rewarding violence.”
