Here is the release in details;

Kwara APC: Security report didn't favour our gubernatorial campaign flag off

Our gubernatorial campaign earlier slated to hold today at Kosubosu, headquarters of Baruteen local government area of the State has been rescheduled over issues bordering on security.

As early as 4am, we got reports that some persons have been imported from neighbouring Benin Republic to lay ambush on roads leading to the venue of our campaign.

Some of our members who had taken off early in the morning escaped being attacked only by the grace of God. The situation around Chikanda town is not favourable at all.

Therefore, I have reached out to relevant security agencies on how to arrest the ugly situation.

It is no news, that some reactionary forces are no longer at ease since we  debut our campaign slogan -O to ge. Their reactions have shown that they will resist every attempt to change the old order in Kwara State.

While we remain resolute in our agenda to birth a new Kwara that will work for all, I will not allow human lives to be wasted on avoidable and redeemable ventures.

I have advised that, our campaign flag off be rescheduled to another date, so that we can work more extensively on the security challenge on ground.

I want to appreciate all those involved in the planning of the flag off ceremony, our teeming members and supporters in Kwara North who have made adequate preparation to host us. Please remain steadfast as a new date will be fixed and communicated to you soon.

I am working diligently and cautiously at ensuring that our electioneering campaign will be devoid of violence not to talk of blood letting. If moving this campaign flag off to a new date will save us, needless blood letting by vampires, so be it.

Abdulrahman Abdulrasaq
Kwara State APC Gubernatorial Candidate,
Ilorin.
