Kwara Deputy Speaker confident of APC's victory
By 2015, Nigeria will have a new government that would provide right leadership under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), the Deputy Speaker of the Kwara State House of Assembly, Prof. Mohammed Yisa, has said. He added that the country will experience flourishing economy under a vibrant APC-led government from 2015.
Yisa said that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)- controlled federal government had misruled the country, stating that the APC will set it back on the right track if elected.
The Deputy Speaker spoke on the forthcoming elections in Ilorin, the Kwara capital, just as a senatorial aspirant in the state; Anu Ibiwoye promised that his Kwara South senatorial district would by 2015 enjoy quality representation, which it lacks at the Senate in the past eleven years.
Yisa and Ibiwoye spoke in separate interviews with newsmen at the APC state secretariat in Ilorin shortly after they collected forms of expression of interest in contesting the party’s slots for offices of National Assembly.
While Yisa collected form for Patigi/Lafiagi Federal Constituency, Ibiwoye obtained the form for Kwara South Senatorial District.
Yisa said he is seeking a seat at the House of Representatives because he wants to be part of those who would make the House vibrant with promulgation of laws that would enable the executive arm turn around the fortunes of the country.
He promised the party would instill discipline and discourage corruption to promote development of the nation.
Ibiwoye, on his part, said people of the Kwara South have not, in the past eleven years, felt the impact of their representatives at the Senate.
He assured that he would make a change if he emerges the next representative of the people at the Senate.
He commended the steps that the APC is taken to ensure there is a level playing ground for all aspirants that would contest the primary election of the party.
