4 attempts to assassinate me has failed, Kwara APC governorship candidate cry out
Extract
I am Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq, the Gubernatorial candidate of APC Kwara
State and, Insha Allah, the next Governor. I must say yesterday’s
incident was the fourth attempt to attack me. The first one was while we
were campaigning for the House of Representative by-elections. The
second was on December 25th, during the IEDPU Day. The third was last
Thursday and the fourth, yesterday. During the IEDPU Day, we walked away
calmly and urged our supporters not to retaliate. We didn’t do
anything; we didn’t respond to their attack. Last Thursday, the same
incidence happened and we urged our supporters not to retaliate. And
yesterday, yesterday’s incident was very bad and I hope it doesn’t
repeat itself again.
We are restraining ourselves because we don’t want to make things go
bad, to turn awry. This is our Town; we won’t destroy it. We know they
are not from here; they don’t care whatever happens. That’s why their
policy is to destroy. If we go back to when they wanted to take power
from Muhammed Lawal, it was through violence. Some of you that know me
know that I contested under CPC, it was not known for violence, we did
not attack anybody, we don’t go about with thugs. We lose election, we
go back home and we come back again. That’s the way it is, it’s not by
force. You can’t impose your will on the people. But what we have here
now is people clutching to straws, a drowning man strikes the way he
wants to. They are drowning, they are on their way out and they have no
answer to what is going on.
Illorin has changed. Kwara has changed. People are decamping daily,
there was a major decamping in Kaiama yesterday. Before that, it was
Oyun. Before that, it was Ekiti. So people are coming into our party
everyday. In trying to stem that, the only answer they have is violence,
violence, violence but we’ll not go toe-to-toe with them in violence.
We’ll keep reporting them to the law enforcement authorities. The police
are doing very well, they are doing a good job, we want them to do
more, and they have to be balanced in what they do.
In terms of what the PDP people are doing, I think they should put an
end to it. They’ve singled me out and other APC candidates out for
attack.
We know that they can’t achieve what they want to achieve. They can’t!
We urge them to be peaceful, campaign like we are campaigning. You can
see that they’re not campaigning. They have a gubernatorial candidate
that is not campaigning, but a senatorial candidate that is campaigning
like a governor. He keeps going from Kwara South to Kwara North, is he
contesting for his 5th term? We really don’t know who is campaigning for
what. They have proxies campaigning. The last time he brought
Abdulfatah Ahmed as governor. We all know that Abdulfatah is not the
executive Governor of Kwara, somebody who couldn’t tar a single road in
Ifelodun Local government. Why do you expect the one they are bringing
now to do any better?
There’s a lot of work to be done in Kwara State. They asked them about
minimum wage. They said that they will pay and that they will even pay
more. These are people that have not paid salary in 6 months, 1 year.
And mind you, people have not noticed that last year’s budget was N190
billion, this year’s budget is N150 billion. If you can’t pay salary
with N190 billion, how can you can you pay on N150 billion?
They’re a bunch of jokers, they are not ready to govern. They are only
here to steal our money, so we have to vote them out. O to ge!
