The Senator representing Kwara Central Senatorial District at the National Assembly, Dr. Ibrahim Yahyah Oloriegbe, has said Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq lacks the courage, capacity and intellect to govern Kwara State.

According to him, this is responsible for the failure of the governor in all aspects of governance. “When you have a leader that lacks courage, capacity, and intellect, what the people will experience is nothing but failure in governance,” the legislator said.

Recall that the federal lawmker had in June, 2022, during his appearance on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily, accused Governor Abdulrazaq of running a government of mediocrity while also describing him as a traitor.

Oloriegbe spoke on Saturday while addressing his supporters and wellwishers on his return to Ilorin. The Senator had been away since he lost the All Progressives Congress, APC Kwara Central senatorial ticket to Mallam Saliu Mustapha.

The Senator also noted that his position regarding the conduct of the APC primaries in Kwara remains the same. “What I said on Channels TV regarding the APC primaries election in Kwara remains the same, nothing has changed. For instance, in Afon constituency, Owode-Onire constituency and Ilorin North/West constituency, no primary was held in those places,” he said.

He had during his appearance on the national TV, faulted the manner at which the primaries were conducted, accusing Governor Abdulrazaq of hijacking the process and directing the delegates to vote for his preferred aspirants in the primaries.

“There was no congress; like in my state, the governor just handpicked them (the delegates) one night and said we have done primaries and the list came. So, you don’t even know who the delegates are,” he said.

Oloriegbe had also in a leaked audio recording from a recent political meeting, vowed not to work for the re-election of the Governor.
