Senator Sadiq Umar (Kwara North) corroborated the position of the Governor, saying he and his colleagues have always worked with the Governor to ensure that the people’s welfare are taken care of.

Asserting that “we have just one government”, he recalled working with the Governor to facilitate relief materials worth over N100m to Likpata and other riverine communities following recent rainstorms that destroyed several buildings and rendered thousands homeless.

He said the visit to the far-flung riverine Likpata confirmed the love that AbdulRazaq and himself have for the people.

“During the campaign we did not visit Likpata but you all voted for us because of the confidence you have in the Governor and all of us. Today we are here to also stand by you. This is our first time of coming to this place. That we visit you in your time of need shows that you truly voted for change and we value your support,” he said.

Led by Senior Adviser and Counsellor to the Governor Architect Kale Belgore, the palliatives committee meanwhile has also taken relief to Pategi and Ilorin South and West to support the vulnerable in the wake of recent incidents.

The community leaders took turns to commend the government for its support, solidarity, and the visit which they acknowledged was the first by any incumbent Governor in the state.
