Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has assured residents of flood-prone areas in the state that the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, would  address the issue of flooding if elected president.

He added that Tinubu would also fund the construction of the Patigi- Bida Bridge.

The governor spoke in Patigi, headquarters of Patigi local government area when the APC campaign train went to the town.

He added: “We are back here once more for campaign, but before we start in this kingdom, we have to pay our respect to His Royal Highness. We want to thank the emirate for voting us into power in 2019.

“Since we came, we met a lot of challenges which we’ve been trying to resolve one by one. You would have noticed how we have been tackling the challenges, such as payment of salaries to workers, pension and gratuity, such as arrears. Our first challenge was how to resolve the issue of human capital development, education and health care development.

 

“We found ourselves in the hole from which we had to come out from. That is why you saw us concentrating on fixing our healthcare centres and schools. Once we get our education right we can compete globally. So we need your support to continue this effort in turning the state around. We have been fixing our schools and hospitals. Right now, work is ongoing at Patigi General Hospital to bring it back to shape. That’s what we have also been doing across the state.

“We have been very prudent in managing our resources carefully. Don’t listen to those who had 16 years with wasted resources. You can see them comparing their 16 years to our three and a half years.

“Before the last elections, we promised to work on the bridge  across the Niger here. And you can see that contract has been awarded for that bridge. The next priority we have is to get the federal government to fund the bridge. You also see the road from Tsaragi to Patigi here. In Federal Ministry of Works (paper), that road has been completed. But the former administration only awarded the contract to themselves and didn’t do the job. So when we went there to ask them (Federal Ministry of Works), they would tell us the road has been fixed.

Responding, the Etsu Patigi, Alh Ibrahim Umar Bologi II said:”  AbdulRazaq has earned our trust and a right to serve more for the next four years on account of his performance, his respect for traditional institution, and his uncommon care for the people.”

The Etsu said he would continue to speak to, “our people to reward your good nature with another term of four years”.
