POLITICS – A ccording to report reaching us reveals how Emir Of Ilorin Alhaji Dr. Ibrahim Zulu Gambari on Friday in a shocking but revealing engagement threw is weight behind the earlier endorsement of the candidacy of Barr. Razak Atunwa.
the Peoples Democratic Party gubernatorial candidate of Kwara State in the fast approaching 2019 elections, according to the Ilorin Emirate Council at the Juma’at service held at Ilorin Central mosque last Friday.
The Emir who expressed is long annoyance to the way the Senate President Dr. Bukola Saraki was treated while in the All Progressive Congress, a party which Saraki sacrificed life and limb to see to victory in the 2015 general election, said he would not let the injustice consume the embattled Senate President.
The Emir said the issue of Saraki becoming the Senate President, if well handled, could have brought ease in the running of Buhari-led administration. He further admitted that the ridiculous performance of the Buhari-led administration cannot be unconnected to the rift between the ruling party and the 8th Senate led by Sen. Bukola Saraki.
The Emir who said the good governance Kwara is enjoying is because of the genuine love Saraki dynasty have displayed to Kwaran and said: “even as we speak, good and potable water is available for Kwarans, all thanks to Governor AbdulFatai Ahmed leadership and many more.”
He also added that the Buhari-led administration lacks the principle of royal dialogue and has brought the Emirate Council to a point where, if not for Saraki, he would have been in shame over the way investigation into the Jebba contract awarded was handled as it attack his person and the institution he represents.
The Emir emphatically said “I believe in our Son” and wherever Saraki decides will be where Kwarans will go and if Buhari won in Kwara or gather even thirty percent of the total votes come 2019, he would step down and find respite in exile as he believes the good people of Kwara would do all it takes to vote against the second coming of Muhammadu Buhari and protect the Emirate as an institution of authority and advocate of good governance.
Recall that the Emir is one of the machinery that was employed to engineer the downfall of the former Governor of Kwara State, Muhammed Lawal of the blessed memory.
He has, on many occasions, declared is unwavering support for the dynasty even when such loyalty keeps it out of step with his subjects.
It has also been occasionally rumored that the so many government contracts handled by the Emir were earmarked to him as a reward of his continuous support for the dynasty.
Some people in different quarters of the state have described the Emirate outrage as a “shallow threat,” It, however, remains to be seen whether the Emir would fulfill his threat of going into exile after Saraki’s loss.

Im not from Kwara but in my deep interest for its history and politics I stay close with happenings in the state, particularly regarding rifts on culture and tradition. The Emir is wrong and untruthful in the above quoted statement. Jebba is older than his ancestors and the throne of monarchy in Jebba was originally under the Oyo Empire. Jebba was an ancient river port and trade confluence for Ilorin and Bida merchants and connected travelers over water with other West African states. This was even long before dan Fodio.

Emir of Ilorin is not comfortable with the position of Oba of Jebba as an older institution and a true royal dynasty. He has made numerous attempts dating back to time of military when they acted as surrogates for his throne and empowered Ilorin above higher and more traditional monarchies in the sorrounding areas to usurp power and force non-Fulani domains under his throne. The Emir, with help of Saraki family and particularly when Bukola was governor sidelined the Oba of Jebba and had him under economic restrictions to force his surrender to the Ilorin Emirate, but they failed.

About two years ago the Jebba bridge which is a popular crossing across the river and the preferred route for travelers and haulers between West and North was brought down. It was reported as a structural fault and failure but we know that is not true...it was act of sabotage to push Jebba out of economic relevance and force it to bend at the knees before the Emirate. The Oba cried out that they were trying to punish him and his people using economic strangulation. There used to be a paper mill at Jebba. After its closure many years ago the town had suffered setback economically, and now by forcing travellers to reroute away from Jebba it would kill them completely.

Considering the importance of Jebba to trade and commerce between West and North, the Minister of Works, Raji Fashola got involved and commenced a fast track recovery and got the bridge rebuilt. The road is a Federal road afterall. The Emirate got bitter because it was excluded in the decision and contract. That's the background behind the nonsense the Emir is uttering publicly. Buhari knows how to talk to royals, this Emir has no respect for his throne or for those thrones that were already at advanced civilization before his ancestors entered this zone.

I hope he keeps his word and abdicate the throne after Buhari's win. Saraki has already lost Kwara. When an Emir get up at Jummah service and speaks, the Jamaa obeys. The Jamaa of Ilorin has rejected this Emir and will defeat him and his candidates in the Saraki fold.

I love Ilorin people, they might be held down but they are not quiet and will recover from the years of damages and injustice done to them by military leaders like IBB and Abacha.

kwa...kwa...kwa..kwar....k...kw...

This emir will be gone if OBJ was the president.






If I was there, I'd have made this hand gestures like in the picture below just to stop him from sounding stupid.


This emir was prophesied to that he'd be removed by Saraki just like the Saraki senior removed his father if he's not careful. I can understand why he's acting this way.

I can't wait for the APC presidential campaign in ilorin.

I pray Atiku wins in Kwara so that you have no reason to step down.
