Nigerians Must Change the Change; as Hajia Sarat's Sensitization Tour Hits Isalekoko Gambari Ward II

*Nigerians Must Change the Change; as Hajia Sarat's Sensitization Tour Hits Isalekoko Gambari Ward II*

In continuation of her ward sensitization tour, the Chairperson of Kwara Local Government Service Commission, *Hajia Sarat Adebayo,* yesterday visited youth and women groups across party lines in Isalekoko, Gambari Ward II, Ilorin East LGA of Kwara State.

Hajia Sarat, who had earlier toured Ibagun ward, also in Ilorin East, noted that the tour was aimed at getting the electorate adequately informed about the political activities and development in the country, and also to solidify support base for the *Saraki political dynasty* in Kwara.

In her message to the youth group of Isalekoko Gambari Ward II, who cut cross different political divides, Hajia Sarat appreciated them for their show of love and allowing her visit not minding the fact that she belongs to a different political camp.

The Local Government Service Commission Chairman, thereafter interacted with the people who expressed their grievances, agitations and needs. 

After listening to their various agitations, Hajia Sarat reassured them of better change in the mode of political patronage under Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. She noted that the political leader in Kwara who doubles as the National Leader of the PDP, *Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki,* is a good listener and lover of youths, and believes strongly in youth inclusiveness in government.

She also took her time to highlight several  challenges Kwara and indeed the Senate President is facing despite his strong support that brought the present Federal Government in power in 2015.

"Our Leader, Dr Saraki, played a significant role in APC victory in 2015, which saw the defeat of a sitting President, Dr Goodluck Jonathan, only to pay him back with witch-hunting, persecutions, intimidation and harassment, using federal apparatus," she said.

"This government under President Muhammadu Buhari has brought more harship to the people than even the previous government we all condemned. The only way out is to show them red card and change the change," Sarat added.

In their various responses, representatives of the youth groups commended Hajia Sarat for reaching out to them. The groups revealed in strong voice, their happiness with the aspiration of Dr Bukola Saraki to become the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

"It's a thing of joy as our own son, the Senate President Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki, is gunning for the number one seat in the country, we are happy about it and promise to give it our total support not only to ensure his victory at the poll but to ensure his party coast to victory in the 2019 general elections.

They, therefore, pledged their solidarity and unalloyed support for Saraki and the PDP, assuring that they would all work for the success of the party in 2019. The group expressed their displeasure about the government of deciet and propaganda under President Muhammadu Buhari. They, however, pledged their support for Saraki to "Grow Nigeria" and reunite the country that has further been polarized under this administration on tribal, religion, and ethicity grounds.

DISSOLUTION OF APC STRUCTURES DOWN THE LINE:  VICTORY FOR AA By Tijani Olaegbe Yes, call it war of attrition or conflict of Titans, you are not far from describing the supremacy battle between the party structure and the Governor who incidentally is the leader of the party in the state. 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 ...
