Guber Poll: Kwara North Voted Development, Not Sentiment – Commissioner
The people of Kwara North senatorial district voted for development by re- electing Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq in the March 18 governorship election, the state Commissioner for Communications, Abubakar Buhari has said.
Buhari, who is also from Kwara North said though the people of the district wanted to produce the state governor, they do not “want a stooge” as governor- a factor which largely accounted for the rejection of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)'s candidate, Alhaji Shuaib Yaman Abdullahi who hails from the region.
“Kwara North sincerely wants one of its people to be governor since the return of democracy in 1999. Kwara central has spent 12 years, Kwara South has spent eight years. Naturally, it should come to Kwara north. But we know what we are doing in Kwara north. We cannot afford to have a stooge for a position we have been clamouring for, we cannot afford to have a sectional government, a government that is coming on a vendetta mission,” he said.
The commissioner who made the declaration in an interview with newsmen in Ilorin, the state capital said the “Kwara North agenda” project which clamoured for the return of power to the region in the just concluded 2023 general elections, failed because the people of the region have seen development under the administration of Governor AbdulRazaq which they wished should continue for another four years.
Buhari said any other candidate that people know can perform could have won the March 18 governorship election in the region and by extension the state as a whole.
“Kwara north voted for development and they could not afford to see the development brought by Governor AbdulRazaq truncated,” he said.
