KAI BERATES ABDULRAZAQ FOR SETTING UP COMMITTEE ON PROPAGANDA IN GOVERNOR'S OFFICE
 
...Chides Governor for Telling Unintelligent Lies before Court over Appointment of TIC
 
 
The Kwara Advancement Initiative, KAI has berated Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq for setting aside a whopping sum of N300million to fund a muck-raking Committee otherwise known as AA Propaganda Team which the Governor recently set up without any public disclosure.
 
KAI in a statement on Sunday, said Governor Abdulraham set up the committee and gave the team directive to generate and churn out conjectures and outright falsehood to malign key opposition figures and APC chieftains who are perceived enemies of the Governor.
 
It was reliably gathered that the muckraking Committee is to be peopled by the Governor’s Special Adviser on Political Communication,Bashir Adigun, his Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye, Special Assistant on New media and one former commissioner in the state who has a penchant for peddling lies.
 
The group said it was totally wrong of the Governor to have allocated N300m of public funds to finance his propaganda machinery, stressing that such arrangement is not in the interest of the State and her people. “Using N300m to finance such a committee amounts to financial recklessness, insensitivity and lack of good vision for the people of Kwara.
 
“The people voted in Governor Abdulraham Abdulrazaq and APC to ensure delivery of dividends of Democracy and protect lives and properties and not to waste public funds on irrelevancies and fight perceived political enemies,” it added.
 
The group therefore asked Governor Abdulrazaq to immediately disband the illegal committee and channel the N300m to other profitable ventures that can serve  the interest of Kwarans.
 
In another development, KAI has knocked the Abdulrazaq administration over its claim before the Kwara State High Court on the issue of appointment of TIC chairmen and suspension of substantive council chairmen in the state, describing the government’s denial as ‘an unintelligent lie’.  
 
The State government had, according to online reports, told the Kwara State High Court, sitting in Ilorin, that it did not suspend chairmen and councilors in the 16 local governments of the State. It also denied appointing Transition Implementation Committee (TICs) for the Councils.
 
“Our group found this denial unintelligent and nauseating. It is very ridiculous that the State Government had to drag itself so low by telling barefaced lies that are too obvious to be dismissed with the overwhelming evidence available in the public.
 
“Is Mr. Governor suffering from memory loss that he quickly forgot that he had constituted Transition Implementation Committees for the councils shortly after the expiration of the tenure of the suspended council chairmen?.”

Since these Tic Chairmen are constituted illegally and against the provision of the law and constitution, we hope they will not join other democratically elected local government council chairmen in the 774 local government councils in Nigeria who are scheduled to meet with President Buhari soon.
