The Baale of Oke-Ile Igbaja in Ifelodun Local Government Area of Kwara State, Olarewaju Ganiyu Raheem, has assured Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of his community’s unflinching support towards his re-election in this Saturday’s Governorship and House of Assembly polls in the State.
The monarch also expressed deep appreciation of his community to the Governor for the opportunity given to one of the prominent sons of the community, Prof. Shaykh Luqman Jimoh, as the Acting Vice Chancellor of the Kwara State University (KWASU).
The Baale in a statement in appreciation of Prof. Jimoh for providing palliative for the people of the community to cushion the effect of the lingering scarcity of money in the country, said the community has benefitted immensely from the administration of Governor Abdulrazaq.
He expressed optimism that his re-election would usher in more developmental projects that will move the State to an enviable height.
The monarch hinted that sons and daughters of the community will come home from the Diaspora to cast their votes for the APC just as they did and delivered their unit for APC in the last Presidential and National Assembly elections.
The Baale who assured that the people of his community were fully behind the success of Mallam Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq and all the candidates of All Progressives Congress (APC) in the coming elections, said that the community remained ever grateful to the Governor for the opportunity given to their illustrious son to serve the State in that exalted capacity as Ag. Vice Chancellor of KWASU.
The traditional ruler urged the Ag. Vice Chancellor to continue to be a good Ambassador of his community and the State in general so as to justify the confidence reposed in him by the Governor and all relevant stakeholders.
He described Prof. Jimoh’s gesture as timely and helpful, saying that it would ultimately complement the efforts of the Executive Governor in making life more bearable for the people of the State.
