Kwara APC: We Have Smoked Out Enemies Within


The Kwara Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) said it is "heartwarming that the enemies within were smoked out" as it could be seen in the mass defection of its former members led by the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki.

In a statement released in Abuja on Thursday by its Chairman, Hon. Bashir Omolaja Bolarinwa described the defection of the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki, Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed and Members of the State House of Assembly as one cleansing that will give peace to the party.

"Senator Bukola Saraki has caused more headaches for this party than even those in the opposition - he has always connived to subvert every good policy of the Federal Government at bringing succour to the people.

"Saraki started out in his senate presidency reign by ceding the party and its due leverage in the National Assembly to the opposition. He was the arrow head and foundation for indiscipline in the party. He invented disloyalty and promoted it to the highest level. He made mockery of everything that we stood for as a progressive party.

"This is one man that can be linked directly with the under development of Kwara State. His 8 years in government was characterized with waste of public funds and betrayal of trust.

"The ignoble and dubious Shonga farm that has brought nothing to the Kwara market was conceived by him. The farm continue to sink public funds year in year out without any of its produce in the market.

"The Cargo terminal and Truck plaza he took loan of several billions of naira to build are not anyway functional. The truck plaza remains invisible, while the cargo terminal provides free accommodation for reptiles.

"The state is suffocated with heavy debts that have no matching projects directed at improving the lives of an average Kwaran.

"One would have thought that when Saraki and Ahmed found themselves in the company of progressive Nigerians, they would be naturally spured to do good.

"Our state remains under developed and the people are deliberately pauperised so, that he can continue to lay hold on our treasury through the active connivance of the State Governor."

The statement further stated that this is the best time for all progressive elements in the state to work together and salvage the state.

According to Bolarinwa; this is one time that all progressives in the state must appreciate the intervention of the Almighty God in the affairs of the state. Our coming together will give alot of strength and return our state to the path of honour. We can collectively determine our pace for growth and development.

"We have for long been deprived of our rights because of the artificial divides that were deliberately concocted by the overlords so as to perpetuate themselves in power.

"We must be united now to take our state back and provide direction for the vast majority that our dissatisfied with the status quo ante.

"Infrastructures are lacking every where, workers' salaries are unpaid, more and more children are dropping out of school and the only lucrative job for the army of unemployed youths is thuggery and/or armed robbery." He concluded.
