Nasir Idris, the incumbent All Progressives Congress governor of Kebbi State, holds an 87.5% implied probability in the 2027 gubernatorial election market due to his party’s unanimous primary endorsement, recent defections of ADC candidates and supporters to the APC, and backing from the state Nigeria Labour Congress chapter. INEC’s final candidate list confirms Idris alongside 13 others, including Abubakar Malami of the African Democratic Congress at 10.5%. Malami, a former Attorney-General, faces ongoing EFCC-related asset proceedings and criticism of his campaign pledges as unsubstantiated. Recent political realignments, labor union support for Idris’s record on infrastructure and services, and the APC’s organizational strength ahead of the February 2027 vote have reinforced trader consensus around the incumbent’s position.
