2019: Avoid divisive utterances-Gov Ahmed

2019: Avoid divisive utterances-Gov Ahmed

Kwara State Governor, Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed has urged politicians to desist from unguarded and misleading comments capable of creating discord and heating up the polity.

Responding to recent social media posts regarding a message by People’s Democratic Party(PDP) elders in Ifelodun Local Government area inviting members to a political meeting, Governor Ahmed described the issue as a party affair which should not be given any negative connotation. While condemning the post and commentaries that followed, he said such unguarded utterances  are not only misleading but also have the capacity to cause divisions that will be difficult to heal in the Kwara South Senatorial district if allowed to fester.

Alhaji Ahmed said while the party as presently constituted in Ifelodun Local Government and indeed Kwara South is known for its inclusiveness and consensus building, the meeting is an internal party affair and should not be given any negative  undertone that can undermine the harmony, peace and cohesion of Kwara South Senatorial District and indeed the state at large.

Governor Ahmed urged all PDP aspirants in the state to abide by the  party structure’s tradition of unity, peaceful conduct, inclusiveness and respect for the leadership in exercising their right to aspire to elective posts.

This unfortunate incident reflects the doctrine that subscribes to the position that politics is a power game, when in the true sense of it, politics is the art of selfless service to fellowmen. This prolonged power game made Ramoni take the people of this State for a ride for the last 18 months by his abysmal disappointing performance coupled with his failure to take cognisance of his pre election campaign promises. The only achievement and that which is visible is propaganda coupled with blame game. Now that the deed is done and the battle is lost and won, Kwarans are eagerly waiting for the aftermath of the Governor's victory over his platform (APC) that catapulted him to
