Shettima To Inaugurate Projects In Kwara As AbdulRazaq Is Turbaned Sardauna Of Ilorin Today

Vice President Kashim Shettima will inaugurate two major projects today in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital, as part of the activities for the turbaning of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq as the Sardauna of Ilorin.

The projects are the Kwara Garment Factory, a signature project of the AbdulRazaq administration that will hire at least 4,000 people at full capacity, and the 11-storey Kwara Revenue Service (KWRS) House, which is funded with savings made from consultancy fees that could have been paid out.

The two projects are only a fraction of over 30 capital projects spread across the state.

The project inauguration will be followed by the turbaning at the forecourt of the Emir’s Palace in Ilorin and reception at the Atlantic.

A statement signed by the secretary of the organising committee, Alhaji Bashir Adigun, said the ceremony will be televised live by the Kwara TV, Radio Kwara, NTA, TVC, and Channels TV.

“Many state governors, ministers, heads of federal and state parastatals, military and police leadership, Ilorin title holders and political elites are expected at the event,” the statement said.
