Kwara APC hails Buhari’s administration

All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Kwara state and Kwara central senatorial candidate, Alhaji Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq and Dr Ibrahim Yahaya Oloriegbe, on Thursday, described the performance of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration since inception as commendable.

Speaking at a training programme organized by the Buhari Campaign Organisation for the party’s canvassers, Alhaji Abdulrazaq said that, “President Buhari has done exceedingly well judging from where we are coming from.

“People have been judging his administration without looking back at where we were before he came in about three and half years ago. The progress he has made if it had been done by the previous administration, then we would have been at the next level”.

He urged the party’s canvassers to mobilize the electorate for the eventual victory of the president and other APC candidates during the coming elections.

“The canvassers are the last link between the party and the voters. Therefore, your job is very important. It is important to carry the message of the party and its candidates to the voters. Your job is to ensure victory at the poll for the president and all other candidates of the APC”, he said.

Dr Oloriegbe said that “APC has in the last three and half years, stabilized this country. It has achieved greatly in the areas of security, eradication of corruption. On the economic plane, APC under President Buhari has been able to undertake significant infrastructural developments which are unprecedented in the annals of the country.

“The railway system being revitalized in spite of the crash in the prices of crude oil in the world market compared to the reign of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) when oil price reached a record high of over 100 dollars.

“The president would have been able to achieve more if APC is able to sustain the leadership and majority in the National Assembly. APC still has the majority in the NASS but there is no democracy in the world where a party controlling the majority in the NASS and now being ruled by the minority. And the president said that never again will that happen as that has impeded implementation of the majority of his policies.

“Major part of that is caused by a Kwaran who used the platform of APC to obtain a ticket into the National Assembly and later turned against that party; not only against his party but against the development of this country by impeding against a number of strategic policies from being implemented.

“For us in Kwara, the presidential and NASS election is very important as it will determine the other ones. We must mobilize massively for the elections.

“The people of Kwara are saying enough is enough for a leadership that is self-centred, enough is enough for leadership that used commonwealth for itself. By the grace of God once we win the first election massively we have sent them packing. And the subsequent

election will be a walk-over for us. We should all know that history will judge us and we should be in the positive side of history for those who have held us down for many years”.
