Former national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Kawu Baraje, has called on Ilorin elites to sink their differences and join hands for the development of the community.
Baraje, who was named the Tafida of Ilorin on Thursday, because of his philanthropism made the call when he paid a thank you visit to the emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu Gambari, in his palace on Friday.
While noting that the Emir is doing his best possible to unite all his subjects, Baraje harped on the need for all sons and daughters of Ilorin emirate to complement the monarch’s efforts in this regard.
He hailed the Emir for spreading chieftaincy titles to the deserving Ilorin elites irrespective of their professional callings, whether politics or other areas of human endeavours.
Baraje, who thanked God for giving him the enablement to assist the downtrodden and the Emir for finding him worthy of the title of Tafida Ilorin, said that the development will further spur him to do more for his people and his community.
Responding during the visit, the Emir prayed for Baraje and other titleholders in Ilorin emirate.
He restated his call for unity among the people of the emirate, saying that the community would prosper only if the people unite and live peacefully among themselves.
