Governor AbdulRazaq Celebrates Democracy Day With Children In Kwara
The Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq on Monday visited the school for special needs in Ilorin, the capital city, to celebrate Democracy Day with the children.
Accompanied by school officials, the Governor inspected some facilities in the school, including classrooms recently fixed by the administration and those freshly affected by rainstorms.
He later interacted with the school head, Abdulganiyu Olododo on pending issues in the school that once hosted the government’s budget review sessions — a gesture AbdulRazaq said was meant to refocus attention on the plights of the students and other underserved communities in the state.
AbdulRazaq then took photographs with the elated children, their tutors and cheered them, in a symbolic gesture of his commitment to always support the children to attain their full potentials.
