Abuja – In a bold show of political strength, a powerful delegation of Augie residents, led by Usman Mohammed (Chairman) and Tukur Musa (Secretary), visited Abubakar Malami SAN, the former Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, to pledge unwavering support for his anticipated 2027 governorship ambition in Kebbi State.
The Augie group, a highly influential and dedicated political block, is widely recognized for its organizational strength and track record of delivering results in Kebbi politics. Their visit is being interpreted by political observers as a significant endorsement of Malami, even before he has officially declared his intention to run.
During the meeting, the delegation cited Malami’s achievements while in office and contrasted them with what they described as the failures of the current state government, saying these factors motivated their decision to commit fully to his projected governorship project.
Malami warmly received the group, expressing deep appreciation for their confidence. “I am grateful for your trust and assure you that I will never disappoint. Together, we will work to restore Kebbi State to the prosperity it deserves,” he said.
Prince Sule-Iko Sadeeq Sani Sami Marafan Zuru, who also welcomed the delegation, highlighted Malami’s consistent record of integrity, noting that his ambition stems from a genuine desire to rescue Kebbi from its current political and developmental challenges.
Bar. Nafi’u Lugga, Malami’s Personal Assistant, reinforced the message, assuring the Augie residents that Malami’s history of loyalty and accountability guarantees that their support will be honored. He urged them to remain mobilized, stressing that their collective effort is crucial to delivering meaningful progress for Kebbi State and its residents.
Political analysts say the visit marks a turning point in the emerging 2027 race, signaling that influential grassroots structures are rallying behind Malami. The endorsement of such a seasoned and dedicated political block not only strengthens his credibility but also positions him as a formidable candidate in Kebbi State politics.
