A lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Muhammad Dele Belgore (SAN) at the weekend said he would run for the office of Kwara Governor next year, saying it was time Kwara reclaimed its rightful place as a first generation state.

Belgore commended his supporters for staying true to the ideal of good governance and community values he represents.


He however added that a formal declaration would be made at a news briefing in the coming days adding that his visit was to carry along his political base across the north-central state.

According to him, “At the moment, our state remains at the lowest wrung of socio-economic development despite being among the oldest states. It is a third-tier state in terms of development. We desire to make it claim its place in history.


“We thank you for standing firm. We thank all the people of our state for their support. Your intimidating presence here suggests that we remain the choice of the masses. We will continue to champion your cause. To that end, I want to tell you that I have obtained the form to run for governorship on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

“At the moment, the line between Kwara’s wealth and some private estate is disturbingly blurred. Our political leadership is more concerned about keeping our people perpetually subservient to some political machinery oiled with public funds much less than it is concerned about our public good.

“We educate our children and painfully watch as they remain unemployed. God forbid it that we or any member of our family fall sick – our hospitals have more or less become death traps. I am sure that these are personal and painful experiences you have encountered or heard about. Yet we read in the newspapers that Kwara State’s internally generated revenue (IGR) is now one of the highest in Nigeria.”

I don't think the Kwarans are ready to break loose from saraki's shackles. How can one family ( Saraki) rule and dictate the affairs of a state for 30/40 years then the father pass the baton of the state to his son. They have so much improvised the state , poverty may have blinded the people to see clearly. If the current errand boy won second term, Bukola Saraki son will serve as a commissioner thereby preparing him for the position of next governor . Imagine a single family ruling each and every state in Nigeria for the past 40 to 50 years ? That's how I want the people of Kwara to look at it.

Stooge !

Anything but Saraki, I'm for lukman but If this is the man that will dislodge Saraki, let's go there.

This was the guy that won the whole of Ilorin metropolis in 2011 but Saraki brought some fraudulent votes from some inner villages and hence he losts.

Welcome development

If APC fields belgore then its goodnight to PDP in Kwara.

He deserves to be the APC candidate. He dumped PDP as far back as 2014.

A formidable candidate with excellence on his mind.

Why can't they allow Igbomina people for once? Thats why places like, Offa, Oro, Omu-Aran are so maginalized.

OK good for him

This Belgore guy is a joker. He's saraki's instrument. saraki plants him in APC to further divide her(APC) votes. He has done it in the past pass two times. He has never meant business.

Saraki will be the happiest man on earth after hearing his name..
