A member of the House of Representatives and former Speaker of the Kwara State House of Assembly, Barr. Razak Atunwa, has emerged the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara state.

Atunwa, a former commissioner for Information and Works in the state polled 1,555 votes to beat his rival, a former governor of the state and serving senator, Alh Mohammed Sha’aba Lafiagi who scored 578 votes.



Atunwa is from Asa local government area in Kwara central while Lafiagi is from Edu local government in Kwara north.

The conduct of the PDP governorship primaries, which started on Sunday, was declared inconclusive when the peaceful process was disrupted abruptly by some aggrieved delegates who alleged that the process was been manipulated.


Before the commencement of voting by the accredited 2,227 delegates from the 193 wards in the state, some guber aspirants such as Ladi Hassan, Saka Issau (SAN), Zakari Muhammed and Ali Ahmad all stepped down from the race while, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, Muhammed Ibrahim Ajia, Prof. Abubakar Sulaiman, Aliyu Ahman Patigi – all boycotted the exercise.

The state governor, Abdulfatah Ahmed, who said that the nine aspirants withdrew from the race because of the party’s interest, thanked them for their act of magnanimity.

The governor also thanked the state’s political leader, Dr. Bukola Saraki, for his wise counselling and purposeful leadership which, he said, had kept members of the PDP united in the state.

You know nothing about kwara state politics,

if thief saraki is to contest as kwara governor, he will not get 40% vote because no room for rigging again.

Saraki is greater than Tinubu relatively when compares to Lagos state. He's a god

Atunwa....... A brother from the yeast

And Saraki came to Osun to campaign against imposition of candidate and godfatherism. Here we are, the same man ensured his anointed godson got the PDP guber-ticket of Kwara. Trust a politician at your own peril.

I will say this over and over again. PDP is dead in kwara as Saraki end is near in kwara. Atunwa ko Atunlo ni

CROWNWEALTH019:

This one will just sit down somewhere typing rubbish up and down.

Let me engage you in a debate, can you give a justification to the aforementioned assertion?

Or u just type gibberish with your daily 25m.b

CROWNWEALTH019:

another big joke

Atunwa from Asa lga, lol, oya ipob come and give us their history

This is an own goal by PDP.

If APC presents a more popular and more accomplished professional as their candidate, it’s over for Saraki in Kwara.

Ope oooooo. Saraki finally going down. This is someone that can not even win his polling boot. He is not in touch with his people at the grassroot level since when he is in Abuja as a 2 times member of house of representative. I wonder how Saraki will rig him in when he did not even have federal backing from the police and Co. Saraki has shot himself in the leg with this imposition ooooooo. Freedom for Kwaran at last

I am from Oyun. People are tired of Saraki. I do engage my colleagues from other Local government area in a discussion and I can categorically tell you everyone is lamenting and talking about how kwara is retrogressive.
We can keep doing things the same way and want change. Saraki must lose in kwara if we want to forge ahead.

Correct, that’s how politics is done

Bolaji is actually Saraki anointed candidate and he didn’t win. Pls get ur facts right

If I contest against Atunwa today I will definitely win
Saraki dynasty has ended.
Kwara state is worst than ebonyi and Abia with bad road everywhere

I hope he betters the lot of Kwarans

I have seen this guy on channels TV several times. He speaks well. Let's hope that he does the job for kwarans

Kwara Apc postponed their election twice just to find out who kwara pdp governorship candidates is going to be. They did this as a result of fear. I'm from kwara state to defeat Saraki in kwara state is not going to be an easy but let's wait and see.
