Kwara Speakership: Don't be greedy and desperate like Saraki - Group warns Popoola by Jerrywright Ukwu - The race for the Speakership of the Kwara state House of Assembly continues to generate tension - A group, Kwara Must Change, has warned Honourable Saheed Popoola to be cautious in his quest to emerge the Speaker - The group advised the lawmaker not to be greedy and desperate like the outgoing Senate president, Bukola Saraki A group, Kwara Must Change, has warned Honourable Saheed Popoola to be cautious in his quest to emerge the Kwara state House of Assembly Speaker. The group accused one Abiola Faronbi of using its name to endorse the Popoola, under a non existing group he described as Kwara Must Change Forum. The group said there is no group known as Kwara Must Change Forum, adding that the name was recently created to impersonate Kwara Must Change, “in a desperate attempt to misconstrue our position on the matter of Kwara Speakership.” In a statement sent to Legit.ng on Tuesday, April 2 by the spokesman of the group, Abdulrazaq Hamzat, Kwara Must Change said: “We totally condemn the impersonation of Kwara Must Change by this desperate character. “It is a known fact, that there is no group known as Kwara Must Change Forum. That shady name was recently created to impersonate our group, Kwara Must Change in a desperate attempt to misconstrue our position on the matter of Kwara Speakership, which will by the grace of God, go to Kwara north as fairness dictates. “Our position is very clear and unambiguous on the position of Speaker and we have stated it repeatedly that our support is for Kwara north and Kwara north alone. “Hon Saheed Popoola is a respected figure whom we hold in high esteem, but his quest to usurp the Speakership position from the rightful people in total neglect for the principal of fairness will hurt him more than anyone else in the future. In his own interest, we advise him to retrace his steps and back down. “This attitude of the powerful and influential, using their privilege to cheat on the weak and less powerful, to our understanding is a Bukola Saraki style that we must never allow to take the centre stage in a liberated Kwara and should Hon. Saheed Popoola decides to become another Bukola Saraki, he may eventually end up like him. “We do not want this to happen to Hon Saheed, hence the advice. Those around him may not be courageous enough to tell him the truth, but we owe him nothing but the truth.” https://www.legit.ng/1231144-kwara-speakership-dont-greedy-desperate-saraki-group-warns-popoola.html 7 Likes 1 Share |

Some facts that some people don't still know: if you as a Family man and You have Only One Son there is hope for you to be Delta state Governor, if your face look like chimpanzee there is hope for you to Rule Edo state, if you live in Lagos as an agbero worker then you has 100percent to contest for Governorship Election in Lagos.

Saraki = Public Enemy Numero Uno in Kwara State. Persona non grata. The guy always had the backing of cultists, criminals, police and judges to influence elections. Leaving APC cost him his political career. He's already No 3, no President will trust him as Vice. The North will never forgive for bashing Buhari repeatedly so he can never be President... ....except in Biafura 26 Likes 4 Shares |

Kwara politics, becoming interesting. Now the "outgoing senate president and a sitting senate president who could not secure a return ticket to the red chambers" Saraki, has finally become a case study in Nigerian and African politics. Congrats to Saraki on achieving this feat. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

All speakers of KWHA since 1999 are first time members- KMC Leading Pro-democracy group in Kwara state, Kwara Must Change has rubbished claims by some stakeholders that only a second term member should be given the speakership position of the Kwara State House of Assembly. In a statement personally signed by President of Kwara Must Change, Abdulrazaq Hamzat, the group said since Nigeria's return to democracy in 1999, all speakers of the Kwara State House of Assembly are first time members and on no occasion has a second term member become speaker. "Since 1999 till date, all speakers of the Kwara State House of Assembly are first time members". Recall that Kwara Must Change had declared it's support for Kwara North senatorial district to be considered for the speakership position of Kwara State House of Assembly. According to Hamzat, Kwara Must Change support for Kwara North to produce speaker is not only right and proper on the basis of fairness and equity, it is also inline with the history of our democratic practice in the 4th Republic. "All over the country, the 3 major positions are usually shared among the 3 senatorial districts and this means that, if Kwara Central have the governor, Kwara South has deputy governor, the third position, which is the speaker should automatically go to the third district, which is Ķwara North". Hamzat also explained that, there's no rule that said only a second term member should be speaker. Such rule do not exist, at least in Kwara State and the history of speakership in the state can testify to this. He said. According to him, Hon. Benjamin Isah was a first timer when he became Speaker of KWHA, Hon. Ibrahim Bio Isa was a first timer, his successor from Kwara South, Hon. Balogun was a first timer, Hon. Rasaq Atunwa was first timer and the current speaker of Kwara State House of Assembly, Hon Ali Ahmad is also a first timer. In the history of Kwara State in this 4th Republic, there has never been a debate over whether or not first term or second term member should be speaker and that argument should not happen now. According to the Kwara Must Change convener, it is unthinkable for anyone from Kwara South to be thinking of having the speakership position, knowing fully well that Kwara South already has the deputy governor, party chairman and even the current minister. The group therefore appeal to all stakeholders to support Kwara North to ensure there's balance and equity. KWARA MUST CHANGE 2 Likes |

nabegibeg: Fairness was not considered In the last Kwara election . It was 'Push Saraki ' out at all cost. Normally, it is the Northern Part of the state that was suppose to present the next governor but political exigencies took over and AA became the governor elect. Along the line, Kwara North were offered Deputy Governorship position but they preferred SSG. I believe the Political leaders of APC will sort everything out on who gets what. Saheeed Popoola is qualified to Aspire but the party is supreme. May the best candidate win 1 Like |
