I'm Ready to Serve - Kawu Agaka Signals Political Ascent After Massive Homecoming Reception
Engineer Suleiman Bolakale Kawu Agaka, retired Executive Director of the Rural Electrification Agency and a distinguished son of Ilorin Emirate, has signalled his readiness to serve Kwara State in greater capacities beyond his accomplished civil service career.
His remarks came at the weekend following a massive public reception in Ilorin, where he was welcomed by a large crowd of friends, associates, and supporters from across political divides after retiring from federal service.
The event, held shortly after his arrival from Abuja at the General Tunde Idiagbon International Airport, featured celebratory music, solidarity songs, and an outpouring of goodwill widely interpreted as growing public pressure for him to contest the 2027 governorship election.
Visibly moved by the overwhelming turnout, Engr. Agaka expressed deep gratitude, describing the gesture as a testament to the people's trust in his leadership potential.
He reaffirmed his commitment to national development and hinted at future plans to contribute more directly to the progress of Kwara State, stating: "I am prepared to serve in greater capacities beyond the civil service."
According to him, "Kwara is at a critical juncture that requires purposeful, people-centred leadership backed by experience, exposure, and integrity.
He pledged his readiness to deploy his wealth of knowledge and managerial expertise to reposition the state on the path of good governance and sustainable growth if given the opportunity.
"I am truly humbled by the confidence and support shown to me today. The pressure from well-meaning Kwarans to step forward for higher responsibilities has been consistent, and I do not take it for granted.
"I am prepared to serve with sincerity, inclusiveness, and a clear vision to change the narrative of governance in Kwara," he said.
While noting that he has not formally joined any political party, Engr. Agaka commended his friends across divides for organizing such a massive homecoming reception.
He emphasized that the clamour for credible leadership is beyond party lines, as the people of the state are yearning for purposeful governance that will deliver the dividends of democracy to their doorsteps.
