2027: Kebbi PDP denies endorsing gov Idris, says party remains united

The Kebbi State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has denied reports that it endorsed Governor Nasir Idris for the 2027 governorship election. According to Punch Nigeria, the party insisted that it remains united.

The denial comes amid reports of a meeting allegedly held by a faction of the party, which reportedly endorsed Idris for the 2027 election. However, the factional National Chairman of the PDP, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, told Daily Post Nigeria that he was not aware of the meeting, saying "we are not aware of the meeting."

Turaki's faction, as well as the Nyesom Wike-led faction, have not publicly announced their governorship candidate for Kebbi State for the 2027 election.
