Tinubu Embarks On One-day Visit To Kebbi For Argungu Festival by Pakute(op): 6:31pm On Feb 13

President Bola Tinubu will on Saturday embark on a one-day official visit to Kebbi State to inaugurate some projects executed by the state Governor, Dr Nasir Idris.

“While in the state, the President will also headline the 61st edition of the 2026 Argungu International Fishing and Cultural Festival as the special guest of honour,” Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, stated in a statement on Friday.

The statement is titled ‘President Tinubu Embarks on One-Day Official Visit To Kebbi State.

The Argungu International Fishing and Cultural Festival is one of Nigeria’s most historic and celebrated cultural events, bringing together communities from across the nation and beyond to celebrate tradition, unity and the end of the farming season.

The festival is one of Africa’s most celebrated cultural events.

It is staged by the riverside of the historic Matan Fada, recognised by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

It was first held in 1934 as a peace initiative between the Sokoto Caliphate and the Kebbi Kingdom and has grown into a major tourism and cultural showcase.

Saturday’s trip is Tinubu’s first visit to Kebbi State.

You forgot to remind him the fishing festival is UNESCO recognized cultural heritage.

I thought wailers wanted the President to visit more states, so why wailing again?.

Pls why telling him? You should have asked him to go to court.

I long ago stopped explaining things to them it doesn't worth it and they don't worth it.

If Tinub is going for fish festival those not happy about it can proceed to vort we will meet them there.

He didn't visit Kwara or Benue where he will, in process, grace the communities he has failed to protect.
