Kwara Residents Groan In Pain by aproko247: 4:08pm On Aug 17, 2015
*The Looting Inside Gov Ahmed’s Govt

Reports reaching us from Kwara State seem not to be a very palatable one. As you read this piece, residents of Kwara have resorted to God to save them from the grip of their governor, Abdulfatah Ahmed, who they fear might run the state aground.

According to a report by The Icon, Ahmed has practically turned the state into his private property and residents of the state have to beg God to send a Moses to save them from the hands of Pharaoh.

While most Nigerians quickly put the blame of impoverishing Kwarans on the table of Bukola Saraki, what they are oblivious of is that Ahmed is becoming more dangerous than his benefactor, the magazine reports.

Impeccable sources have confirmed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) allegation that Ahmed truly pays Saraki a whopping sum of N100 million every month from the state’s coffers.

In the statement, the PDP stated, “We have noted the desperate bid of the Kwara State government to cover up for Sen. Bukola Saraki in respect of the millions of naira that he draws monthly from the state’s lean treasury in the name of an obnoxious, immoral and insensitive pension law that he enacted for himself while in office.

This latest cover-up has only succeeded in raising more questions than answers. It has also evidently shown that the government’s spin doctors have exhausted their basket of lies – a thing that has become a routine pastimes in the life of the present APC-led administration in Kwara State.

“Arising from the government’s latest official cover-up for Saraki, we raise the following posers:

“If in truth Mr. Bukola Saraki had not demanded for security operatives since he left office three years ago, why then did the speaker of the Kwara State House of Assembly, Mr. Razaq Atunwa, on Tuesday, 10th September 2013 threaten to sue the IGP for allegedly violating the provisions of Section 2 (3) Paragraph H of the Third Schedule of Kwara State governor and deputy governor (payment of pension) Law 2010 which makes provision for over 10 different security attachés for Bukola Saraki? If the salaries of Bukola Saraki’s retinue of police and SSS security attachés were not being charged on the state meager allocations, why did the Kwara State House of Assembly subsequently pass a resolution describing the alleged withdrawal as ‘unconstitutional, ‘illegal’ and a ‘breach of law’ the legislators validly passed? If the KWSG is denying the assertion of the PDP on the over N100million that Bukola Saraki draws monthly from the public treasury in the name of pension benefit, it is also ready to deny its own speaker who had much earlier admitted that the security operatives are Bukola Saraki’s birthright pursuant to the pension law?

why lamentation no de tire us for kwara
instead of getting our acts together and confronting bukky with our votes

they should learn from tinubu
and back one candidate to remove saraki from power
then they can continue fighting among themselves
