Kwara Redemption Movement 'Driven by Frustration', Says Governor's Media Adviser

Date: 2024-11-05

The Special Adviser on Media to Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of Kwara State, Alhaji Basiru Adigun, has characterised the architects behind the recently launched Kwara Redemption Movement (KRM) as "failed politicians" driven by what he termed "pull him down syndrome" (PDS) out of frustration.

The KRM, led by APC chieftain Hon. Iyiola Oyedepo, was recently established in Ilorin with a stated mission of reshaping the political landscape in Kwara and challenging the ruling APC's position in the forthcoming election.

Leaders of the movement have asserted that the group's goal is to push for the state's development and progress.

However, a statement issued in Ilorin on Monday which the governor's aide on Media personally signed, Alhaji Adigun stated that: “The contradictions of the group stemmed from its claim to be non-partisan and at the same time claiming that its members are drawn from different political parties; taking sole ownership of the 2019 Peoples Revolution known as O to Ge which swept away the Saraki Political Dynasty, replaced by the current Republican Kwara political space under the inspiring leadership of Governor AbdulRahaman AbdulRazaq” .

The statement said: “O to Ge is a revolution by the people of Kwara and not by any individual or group of people.

“The people showed their love, support and endorsement for Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq through the 2019, 2023 General elections and the just concluded local government elections in all of which they overwhelmingly voted for the administration in 2019, 2023 general elections and recently the 2024 local government election.

“We wish to state that Akogun Oyedepo and his ilk have traveled this path before and the outcome of this Gulliver politics is well known to the people of Kwara

“The people of Kwara should be aware that the gang up is driven by their failure and frustration not to have pocketed Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq and prevent him from focusing on providing dividends of Democracy and positive impact on the people of Kwara State”.

The statement further added: “The same group misled some of its members to join the Social Democratic Party SDP ahead of the 2023 general elections with incalculable negative consequences to those members.

“Akogun, their leader abandoned them in the SDP to reaffirm his membership of the All-Progressive Congress and pledged his loyalty to Governor AbdulRazaq”.

The statement further said: “The KRM members are certainly annoyed because of the governor's unbending principle against using the people's wealth for personal aggrandizement as practiced by the displaced dynasty.

“They are dissatisfied with Kwara Social Investment Programme empowering the poor and the vulnerable in the state instead of them cornering the people 's wealth to themselves.

“The so called movement is frustrated because Governor AbdulRazaq has excelled beyond reasonable doubt in all sectors; education, health, poverty alleviation, infrastructural renewal, security, food production, prompt payment of salaries, pension and gratuity for workers at both State and LG levels and the pensioners unlike the dehumanizing experience of the PDP era.

“The governor has continued to win landslide by the overwhelming votes of the people of the state against their own conspiracy with their disgraceful paid master”.
