Today, as the whole country celebrates Democracy Day, I Senator Abubakar Bukola Saraki join Nigerians home and abroad to celebrate the inauguration of Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed for Second Term.

Over the years, from the mandate that was first given 2011 by the great people of our dear state, Governor Ahmed has shown that he is passionate about continuing to build a suitable Kwara for next generation. His persistence on people centered politics has endeared him to the hearts of everyone.

Unquestionably, Governor Ahmed has met the expectations of Kwarans in the last four years. However, nation building is a continuous exercise. I enjoin Governor Ahmed and the incoming administration to see the overwhelming victory that was received on April 11 as a challenge to surpass the expectations of all Kwarans, by ensuring that every Kwaran reaps the dividends of our state's democracy.

I also enjoin all Kwarans regardless of political affiliation, to work together with Governor Ahmed and his administration to ensure that our great state continues to develop while being accountable to the people.

As we forge ahead in this new dispensation, knowing fully well that we are all under the authority and will of Almighty, I pray for success of His Excellency, Governor Ahmed and ask that Almighty continue to bless, endow and guide our dear state and its people.
