The newly turbaned District Head of Bagudo in Kebbi State, Muhammad Sambo Khaleil has said that Kebbi State was lucky to have Nasir Idris Kauran Gwandu as Governor of the state and Alhaji Muhammadu Iliyasu Bashar as the Emir of Gwandu.

Sambo Khaleil revealed this to newsmen at his residence in Bagudo, shortly after his turbaning as the new District Head of Bagudo and Bahindin Bagudo under Bagudo Local Government Area of Kebbi State.
He said “I knew Governor Nasir Idris when he was a teacher, he was a listener per excellence and a very generous person who always wants to please people.

On the Emir of Gwandu, Alhaji Muhammadu Iliyasu Bashar, Sambo Khaleil said, “He is a complete gentleman, a retired senior military officer who held various positions in the country and Gwandu Emirate before he became the Emir.
