I'll floor Ajibola in Kwara, says Ahmed

Date: 2014-12-15

Kwara State Governor AbdulFatah Ahmed has argued that the emergence of Senator Simeon Ajibola as the governorship candidate of the state's Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was not a challenge for his re-election bid.

The governor, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Alhaji Abdulwahab Oba, said: "I don't see him as a threat. Indeed in the last election, I was part of the team who pleaded with the people of Kwara South to re-elect him into the Senate."

Ahmed promised to continue to upscale his programmes since the people were ready to make their choice in good governance, development, peace and youth empowerment as he had demonstrated in the last three years.

He said the All Progressives Congress' (APC's) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, would end corruption and insecaurity in Nigeria, if elected next year.

He said the emergence of Buhari was a reflection and confidence of Nigerians that the former head of state has capacity to tackle the nation's corruption and insecurity.

The statement added that the retired general had the antecedents Nigerians could look back to, adding that he had done it before and would do it again.

He said the conduct of APC presidential primaries saw democracy and sportsmanship in action, emphasizing that it was a reflection of what Nigerians should be looking forward to from next year.

He urged other political parties to learn from APC's inclusiveness, sportsmanship and allowing one man, one vote concept to be their watchwords in any democratic selective process.
