Reports indicate that Malami confirmed his decision in a statement shared on Saturday via his social media platforms, where he cited worsening insecurity, poverty, poor healthcare, declining education standards, and economic hardship as key reasons for entering the race.
The former Justice Minister said he could no longer remain silent while residents continue to suffer what he described as deepening hardship and governance failure in the state.
Malami alleged that Kebbi State is currently facing a severe humanitarian and governance crisis, pointing to troubling figures in education, healthcare, poverty, and insecurity.
He claimed that over 67 per cent of children aged six to 15 are out of school, while more than 88 per cent are affected by multidimensional poverty.
He also raised concerns about the state of healthcare, saying maternal mortality remains high and that many rural communities still lack access to basic antenatal and medical services.
On security, Malami said repeated attacks by bandits and kidnappers have forced farmers off their land and left businesses operating under constant fear.
He accused the current administration of failing to adequately respond to the growing challenges facing citizens, saying government priorities have been misplaced.
Declaring what he called a “State of Emergency on Misgovernance” in Kebbi State, Malami promised that if elected governor in 2027, he would prioritize security, education reform, and healthcare improvement.
He said his ambition is driven by a desire for service, accountability, and sustainable development, adding that ineffective leadership must give way to purposeful governance.
Malami also called on the people of Kebbi State to support what he described as a collective effort to rescue and rebuild the state into a safer and more prosperous society.
