The governor made the remarks at the Government House in Birnin Kebbi while receiving executive members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from Birnin Kebbi Local Government Area.
Nasir Idris disclosed that he had engaged international investors during his foreign trips but alleged that some individuals from within the state were spreading misinformation about Kebbi’s security situation.
According to him, such reports portray the state as unsafe and could undermine ongoing investment discussions.
The governor Nasir Idris cited plans by Romanian and Chinese firms to establish a lithium processing facility and a cement factory in the state, projects he said could generate significant employment.
He also dismissed allegations that his administration was supporting bandit groups or facilitating the inflow of arms into the state, describing the claims as false.
Nasir Idris said his government has committed substantial resources to security and called on residents to avoid spreading unverified information that could harm the state’s economic prospects.
