@egi_nupe We should also remember that Kwara wasn't in created in 2019. What happened in the years before? How cam there no be a single asphalt road in whole of Baruten for about 56 years? And you expect us not to reference the dynasty responsible for this failure?

This is the second election circle that Senator Bukola Saraki will not be on the ballot but Otoge boys won’t stop chanting his name. SMH

Main point

It is funny when people talk about the infrastructural gap in Kwara North without context. The size of Baruten and Kaiama LGAs alone with ((16,720 km²) is almost the size of Anambra, Imo, and Ebonyi States combined. kwarastate.gov.ng/government/lga…. Even looking at it from another angle. It is bigger than the entire Ogun State with (16,400 km²) nipc.gov.ng/nigeria-states… As a matter of fact, the first asphalt road in Baruten LGA was done by Gov @RealAARahman in 2020. In addition is also the almost completed 33km Ilesha Baruba-Gwanara road. He also facilitated over 200km of road The roads which have attained various stages of completion include; Kosubosu-Kaiama-Bode Saadu (130km); Bacita-Shonga-Lafiagi (83km); and Okuta-Bukuro Road, which connects the state to the Benin Republic (32km). These roads were originally designed by the Gov @RealAARahman in 2019 and lobbied his ally @asr_rabiu of BUA to get it financed upon the issuance of the Executive Order 007 by late PMB. The rest they said his history. This is to add that almost all the roads in Kwara North are FG roads, despite this, amongst other factors, this administration has done a lot in building roads in Kwara North. The current Senator @SenSadiqUmar, in his modest way has also facilitated several road projects too to complement what the state is doing. We should also remember that Kwara wasn't in created in 2019. What happened in the years before? How cam there no be a single asphalt road in whole of Baruten for about 56 years? And you expect us not to reference the dynasty responsible for this failure? The truth is we are not where we want to be but it is wide departure from where Kwara used to be in the past.

Lol 😆 you are not from Kwara

Okay

My ambition, Kwarans, and the beautiful scripture of historical template—A Covenant of Service Ibrahim Elelu Ayoola — APC" Governorship Aspirant, Kwara State My ambition, Kwarans, and the beautiful scripture of historical template that has carried our people through seasons of struggle and renewal, compel me to offer myself for service as governor of Kwara State. I believe Kwara is not a stool to be rotated but a state to be governed; therefore I present a covenant of competence, care, and courage—measured by what improves your daily life. We will secure our communities by mapping risks ward by ward and running a live security dashboard for the state; training, equipping, insuring, and legally backing community vigilantes who work in sync with the police, NSCDC, and the military; establishing a Rapid Response Fund to keep patrols mobile and communication clear; lighting vulnerable corridors with solar streetlights, repairing access roads, and clearing known escape routes; and setting up a Victims Support Desk for medical care, trauma counselling, displacement support and recovery micro-grants, alongside a functional distress line and monthly public briefings with traditional rulers, women, and youth leaders. Our administration will create dignified work through three senatorial Job and Skills Hubs delivering digital, artisan, and agri-enterprise tracks tied to job placements; an MSME Growth Fund offering single-digit interest and equipment leasing with market linkages; expanded graduate internships in MDAs and partner firms; and an annual Kwara Innovation Fair to reward creativity and technology. I will strengthen education by recruiting and training teachers on merit with rural incentives; making schools safe and functional with fencing, water, toilets, and power; strengthening technical and vocational pathways; awarding bursaries and scholarships on need and merit; and sourcing school feeding from local farmers. The government will put primary healthcare first by revamping PHCs with staff, drugs, power, water, and basic diagnostics within thirty minutes of every community; prioritising maternal and child health; deploying ambulance tricycles for hard-to-reach wards; driving health-insurance enrolment for informal workers and vulnerable groups; and holding quarterly community feedback on service quality. Together we will boost agriculture and food security with timely inputs; clusters around storage and processing; farm-to-market roads and solar cold rooms in major markets; mobile extension agents; youth agri-entrepreneurs supported with land, mechanisation, and off-taker agreements; and micro-irrigation schemes to reduce climate risk. My team will deliver roads, water, and power by publishing a four-year infrastructure pipeline with costs and timelines and finishing abandoned projects; rehabilitating and reticulating rural water schemes where feasible with WASH facilities in schools and PHCs; lighting township roads; and partnering on mini-grids for productive-use clusters. We will place the girl-child and women at the centre of our renewal by keeping girls in school with free sanitary pad banks in all public secondary schools, safe toilets and water, scholarships for indigent girls, and transport support in remote wards; reducing teenage pregnancy and child marriage through community dialogues with parents and traditional leaders, a firm school re-entry policy for young mothers, and a confidential helpline with counselling; opening new pathways with Girls-in-STEM clubs, coding bootcamps, an annual science fair, and mentorship with women professionals; expanding economic power through a Women Enterprise Window under the MSME Fund, creche support for working mothers, and stronger response to gender-based violence including safe shelters and legal aid; and setting a clear target of thirty-five percent women in appointments and boards while publishing an annual Gender Scorecard. 1/2

Road to Kwara 2027 In the last local government election (2024) , I did not support the present chairman , because my mentor , leader and brother is contesting, till date I still stand with him ( Hon. Salahudeen A Lukman ) #ElukuOmoAdugbo And I can confidently say that Hon. Suleiman Laaro Omituntun @HonOmituntun is more popular than Gov. AbdulRasaq in Offa LGA. In short , due to quality opposition at Local Government Level , The White man in Offa has delivered more projects in Offa than the Governor.. Both of them are APC One is a Total Failure , The Other is Fair In 2027 Choose your Leaders Wisely

Today marks a significant milestone in our collective journey towards a more efficient, transparent, and digitally driven local government system. The commencement of Project 774: Digital Capacity Training is not just timely—it is transformative. As the Executive Chairman of Offa Local Government, I am proud that our council has been selected as one of the pilot beneficiaries of this impactful initiative. This recognition reflects our readiness to embrace innovation and positions Offa at the forefront of grassroots digital transformation. I must sincerely commend His Excellency, Mallam @RealAARahman AbdulRazaq, CON, for his visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to inclusive development. His administration continues to set the pace in ensuring that the dividends of governance, particularly in the area of digital advancement, reach every segment of society. I also extend my appreciation to the Federal Ministry of Communications, Innovation & Digital Economy for the conception and rollout of Project 774. This initiative underscores the importance of empowering local government personnel with digital skills that are essential for modern governance and service delivery. Let me emphasize that this training goes beyond acquiring technical skills it is an investment in our people. It will enhance our capacity to deliver quality services, improve transparency, and strengthen our engagement with the communities we serve. To all participants, I urge you to take full advantage of this opportunity. The knowledge you gain here will not only benefit your personal development but will also serve as a catalyst for growth and innovation across Offa. As a local government, we remain committed to supporting policies and programs that drive sustainable development, empower our people, and position Offa for a brighter digital future. Hon. Suleiman Olatunji Omituntun Executive Chairman, Offa Local Government March 30, 2026
