Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has congratulated all the newly elected 16 Local Government Chairpersons and 193 Councillors on their deserving victories at the Saturday’s election.
The Governor also congratulated all the leaders and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on the successful outing at the pollls, which he links to the strides of the government, the support of every party member and stakeholders, and sustained relationships that the party has built with the people of the state.
Governor Abdulrazaq commends the Kwara State Independent Electoral Commission and the security agencies for the peaceful and hugely successful exercise.
The Governor says he is confident that insights and experiences from the exercise will help to improve future elections in the state and across the country, especially that leadership of other states’ electoral commissions observed the exercise across the state.
Governor Abdulrazaq again commends Kwarans for their large turnouts for the election, their support for the APC, and their decent conducts while it lasted.
He thanks all the political parties for their impressive participation and sportsmanship.
Similarly, the APC State Chairman, Prince Sunday Adeniran Fagbemi, congratulated the 16 newly elected council chairmen and all the 193 councilors in the state.
Prince Fagbemi hailed the outcome as a triumph of democracy and acknowledged the trust placed in the APC by the people of Kwara State.
He attributed the victory to the impressive development projects executed by the administration of Governor AbdulRahaman in the state and his commitment to sustaining development across the state.
The Chairman thanked the Governor for giving the Kwara State Independent Electoral Commission (KWSIEC) needed support to conduct free, fair, and credible elections.
He, however, encouraged the newly elected Chairmen to ensure even development across all communities, emphasizing the importance of fulfilling their campaign promises to maintain the support of the people.
