The question about the zoning of being preceding to determine where the next governor of the Kwara state should come between the three senatorial districts in the state is generating a heated debate and a lot of passion among the main interested parties, he writes BIOLA AZEEZ.
The battle for the Government's house in the state of Kwara has begun seriously. Several created interests have been mapping strategies aimed at placing themselves in a better place for the house of the Government Ilorin. An underlined problem in the front burner is the zoning policy. It is generating an intense discussion and interrogation in most circles between the three senatorial areas of the State. Many interest groups and individuals are generating concern about the disposition of the ruling Congress of all progressive (APC) to the generalized discussion on the matter. Along with this, there is the series of meetings that are held by indigenous people of high profile at different levels on the subject.
Central for discussion and debate is where the next state governor should come from. To be precise, the quid of the matter is the imperative of equity, equity and the sense of belonging to the determination of the district that the successor of Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrasaq should produce in the Government's house at the expiration of their two terms of four years in 2027. This is against the backdrop of the fact that both Kwara South and Kwara Central have occupied the seat in the last 25 years.
To this end, notable politicians in political parties in Kwara North have formed a common front in their attempt to ensure that the area produces the next state governor. To update the desire of the district, the politicians of the State parties, including the Congress of all progressives (APC), the Popular Democratic Party (PDP) and the Labor Party (LP) attended a meeting of interested parties convened by an unconditional APC, Senator Mohammed Ahmed.
According to the statement, issued at the end of the meeting and signed by Senator Mohammed Ahmed, interested parties reiterated their position on the need for Kwara North to have the opportunity to produce the next governor. “Kwara North for Governor in 2027 is very desirable. The meeting recognized and thanked the real parents and young groups in the district, for constantly defending the power course of power to Kwara North. However, the meeting recommended the need to reach the districts of Kwara Central and Kwara South Senatorial for strategic consultations and persuasions of the persuasions, as the power is never served in Cadas of the cadas “.
The problems of marginalization and developing were discussed, and the meeting decided that a high -power committee was established to address the problems in an integral way and solve a framework for the realization of its objectives. This, according to the meeting, would be in the general interest and spirit of the Brotherhood, Union, Equity, Equity and Justice that have eluded the Senatorial District of Kwara North since the fourth Republic.
He remembered that in 2019, the APC successfully assured the power of the Popular Democratic Party (PDP) in the State. The tsunami that swept the PDP during the general elections was revalidated in the 2023 elections. However, the analysts are of the opinion that the landslide registered by Kwara APC in the general elections of 2019 and 2023 was possible thanks to the overwhelming votes obtained by the Kwara Central Party to pave the way for the first revolution in the annals of the State.
Speaking about the development, the coalition coordinator of Kwara for good governance (KCGG), Mallam Isiaka Mohammed, said that Kwara Central is essential for the victory of the governing APC, asking the leaders of the ruling party to be careful in the steps to retain power. “That Kwara's central senatorial district is recorded with caution is the victory of the ruling APC, it cannot be left open for the elements of the opposition that are planning to become the next state governor. Just as a cat waiting for a rat rat to devour it, the PDP is waiting in the wings.” The group, which said that the APC in Kwara does not have the obligation to act any agenda for change of power without script and undocumented on the altar of the moral compass, added that “doing that about moral concerns and consideration will be an attempt to dig the tomb of the party in the 2027 elections.” According to the organization, the APC leaders should extract lessons from winning strategies established by some states, which according to his candidates for the governor of the majority and not of the minority areas. “Instances ABOUND IN OYO STATE WHERE POLITITIES CAPITALISED ON THE POPULATION OF IBADAN TO WIN ELECTIONS.

However, as the 2027 general election is approaching, the lawyer of the interested parties, the leaders of the party and other well -intentioned indigenous people of the State is that the APC governor ticket must be conveniently retained in Kwara Central. Party member, Hassan Aliyu de Gaa Akanbi Ward, Ilorin shared the opinion, saying: “This is because Kwara Central parades a great numerical force that could deliver almost 50 percent of the cumulative votes in the state, so the senatorial district of the Kwara Senatorio District, the government of the direction of the management of the Pendulum of Victory should oscillate in 2027 For the change of power to Kwara North they are doing it for the figures of their imagination and are paid to the support of drums to the non -existent agreement to the detriment of the possibilities of winning the Governor of 2027 for the choice of the choice of the area and the mission of Kwara North.
