Fagbemi and Seriki disclosed that efforts were ongoing to bring back former stalwarts of APC who have emerged as the governorship candidattes of SDP, YPP and NNPP.

“APC shall win the gubernatorial election and other elections  by wide margin.The minister of Information and Culture, Alh Lai Mohammed  is one of our leaders and he’s still part of us. He has never said that he’s no longer part of us. He will participate in the 2023 general elections with us. The closer you look, the lesser you know as it concerns APC in Kwara. Never mind, by the time elections comes you will see that we’re going to win by wide margin than what happened in 2019. There’s no cause for alarm”, Fagbemi said.

For his part, the APC campaign council director general, Serik said:”  The APC campaign council is working hard to bring back APC stalwarts who have emerged as gubernatorial candidates of YPP, NNPP, SDP to APC which is their family.”

Seriki  said that exodus of governorship and senatorial candidates of the YPP, SDP,NNPP  and ADC from the ruling party will not have negative effect on the chances of the governor in 2023 general elections.

He added:” If you could recall, I was the  director general of the APC campaign council in the Kwara Central senatorial district in 2018/2019 general elections. Many of these people that decamped from APC didn’t participate in the election campaign then. You see, all these people in the YPP, SDP, etc  we’re part of one big family and are related one way or the other. In 2019, I approached about 13 governorship aspirants then on the need to present one person among all of us as the party’s governorship candidate. The major reason they are not in APC today is because of their personal interest or expectations which according to them might not have been met.

“My own interest is to see a better Kwara state. If they believe in growth of the state, they would not have left the party. Kwara is bigger than anybody. Leaving the party, to me, is out of personal interest and not that of the state.

“To answer your question, their departure from the party would not affect chances of the governor in his bid for re-election. They also know they are going no where leaving the party. They were probably looking for ways to see us come and meet with them, which we have already started. By the special grace of God, the governorship candidates of the YPP, SDP, even PDP, we are together. Don’t be surprised to hear and see tomorrow the PDP governorship candidate, Alhaji Shuaib Yaman Abdulahi, saying that because of Ambassador Yahaya Seriki, he’s supporting Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq reelection bid come 2023”.

Also speaking, the campaign council spokesperson,Mrs  Florence Oyeyemi said that the state has moved from the 20th position on financial sustainability index in 2018 to eighth position currently.

She was responding to allegation by the opposition on alleged huge debt profile of the present administration, saying that there’s no way the present administration would have been servicing debt and move up on the financial sustainability index.

“Fiscal sustainability index simply means ability to be able to sustain your finances comparing it with what your loan repayment schedules are and relating it with federal accounting and allocation Committee (FAAC) and IGR”, she said.

She also said that the only facility taken by the present administration was bond, which she said was being used for the execution of sustainable projects like garment making factory, Innovation hub and Visual Arts Centre.
