Senator Rafiu, Changing the Narratives of Education Sector in Kwara Senator Rafiu Adebayo Ibrahim is no longer a stranger to the people of Kwara South senatorial district he is representing at the National Assembly.

Hopes were restored into many homes in Kwara South Senatorial District with the help from their representative at the Senate who does not only represent them well but has also

Exposing their Propaganda cum hypocritical Story in Irepodun,Ekiti, Isin and Oke Ero At every elections period, both heavy and paperweight politicians will always come to showcase interest in one political office or the other.  Since the law permits any eligible citizen to seek political office of his/her choice , some people who have no political records that can sell them to voters are now resorting to spreading cheap emotional propaganda to ignite unnecessary acrimony and set the peace loving people of the constituency against one another. They want to hide under the guise of fighting for Ekiti Local Government but Ekiti/Oke-ero people know whose Representation have brought *standard road Projects to Ekan-Imoji-Erinmope Ekiti,  Ultramodern Maternity centre, several motorised boreholes and water projects, monthly Direct Cash Transfer to the vulnerables* across Ekiti and Oke-ero Local government within shortest of time.

The Tinubu Rhetoric: My Response, by Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki I have always restrained from joining issues in the media with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and this is based on my respect for him. However, I will not allow him to create a wrong, false and mischievous impression about the reasons for my decision to exit the All Progressives Congress (APC) and present his prejudice as facts for public consumption. I have been consistent in my complaints to all leaders of the APC, including Tinubu, that a situation where the National Assembly is not constructively engaged or carried along in key policy decisions, particularly those that will eventually require legislative approval, is not in the best interest of the nation. No genuine leader of the legislature will be comfortable that the Presidency will simply write a terse letter to the National Assembly on key issues which the federal legislature is expected to later deliberate upon and give its approval. The Buhari administration consi

-Lai Muhammad the Incapacitated and Selfishness Leader Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness. The leadership position is not about you and your family members alone, but to make people be a benefaction of good democracy. The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Muhammad, who claimed to be one of the APC Leaders in Kwara State, was in his country home, Oro in kwara State to celebrate Sallah with members of his family alone not with people of Oro.  Unfortunately, as most of  the faithful Muslims from Oro move to praying ground to pray, Lai Muhammad refused to show up and felicitate the occasion with the good people of Oro. This is a clear indication that Lai Muhammad is not worthy to be called a leader. Leadership is not about you and your family alone, but to show love to every body you are leading.

August 16, 2018 Press Statement Why Buhari Is Jittery, Embattled Over Electoral Act Amendment – PDP...Accuses President of Holding Nigeria to Ransom The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says President Muhammadu Buhari, in his desperation to achieve a personal ambition, is holding the nation to ransom by refusing to sign the Electoral Act Amendment bill, passed by the National Assembly to check manipulations in the 2019 general elections. President Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) are quavering because the draft law effectively checked all their machinations, which they have been deploying in rigging past elections and intend to use in the 2019 general elections. The amendment bill, which is in the overall interest of the nation, embattles President Buhari because it eliminates openings for major malpractices including the use of underage and alien voters, vote buying, alteration of results and manipulation of voter register, which the APC intends to use to rig the 2019
