2027 Guber: Kwara North Politicians Chart Common Front

Notable politicians across political parties in Kwara North have formed a common front in their bid to ensure that the zone produces the next governor of the state come 2027.

To actualise the Kwara north district’s desire of producing the governor of the state in 2027, politicians from the major political parties in the state, including the All Progressives Congress (APC), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Labour Party (LP) attended a stakeholders meeting conveyed by an APC stalwart, Senator Mohammed Ahmed.

According to the communique issued at the end of the meeting, the stakeholders, “emphasised greatly on the need for unity among all political players in Kwara North senatorial district across political parties within the five local government areas.”

The communique signed by Senator Mohammed Ahmed said that the stakeholders reiterated their stand on the need for Kwara North to be given the opportunity of producing the next state governor, declaring that “Kwara North for Governor 2027 is highly desirable.”

It added: “The meeting agreed and resolved that all agitations for Kwara North for Governor 2027, should be centralised under the leadership of this forum to avoid unnecessary proliferation of groups.

“The meeting acknowledged and thanked the royal fathers and youth groups in the district, for consistently championing the course of power shift to Kwara North come 2027.

“The meeting, however, recommended the need to reach out to Kwara Central and Kwara South senatorial districts for strategic consultations and persuasions, as power is never served ‘a la carte’.

“The issue of marginalisation and under development were exhaustively discussed, and the meeting resolved that a high powered committee be set up to address the issues holistically and work out a frame work for the realisation of our objectives.

“This, according to the meeting, would be in the overall interest and spirit of brotherhood, togetherness, equity, fairness, and justice that have eluded the Senatorial District since the fourth Republic.”
