KWARA APC GUBER RUNNING MATE: TIME FOR ABDULRASAK TO SHOW LEADERSHIP

There has been several permutations by the various stakeholders of the APC in Kwara State over who become running mate to Abdulrasak Abdulraman, several interest groups are nominating different people for the slot and they are seriously lobbying various party stakeholders in the State and at the National level.

However, there are important factors to be considered in picking a running mate but above all is a consideration of a person who can add value to Abdulrasak candidacy, appeal to the public and boost the strength to win the general election.

Most at times, politicians who constitute less than 30% of the electorate places their interest above the interest of the masses who have more strength in term of votes and the overall success of the project, this is also the situation today in Kwara.

There is undue pressure on Abdulraman Abdulrasak  from various quarters, it is rumoured that more than 10 groups have come up with names of their preferred candidates and some of them even become insensitive that they are pushing for Muslim-Muslim ticket which will spell doom for the party in the State.

Meanwhile, here comes the time for the guber candidate to assume leadership and be decisive, he must prove to us that he knows what is good for the masses and can really lead us, he must realise that he will face the highest of the heat of any problem that might be created for him by selfish politicians, he must show us that he is not a stooge and that he would be different to what we are currently experiencing in the State, hence, he should name his running mate now.

Its glaring that some parts of Kwara State have been marginalize in all the arrangement of the APC, it's only normal for the people of the area to be considered, however the time for Abdulrasak to act is now to pick someone that will not only represent the unrepresented Christian Youth yearning  but will also add value to both his campaign and also governance.

Kwarans are more interested in people who knows their problems and have shown commitment in solving those problems over the years. We hope that Abdulrasak and the APC would be sensitive enough to make community development a priority.

We hereby call on Alh. Abdulrasak Abdulraman to name his deputy against all odds and bring together all groups to work for the overall victory of the party in the State.
