Comrade Salahudeen A Lukman, popular as Eluku Omo Adugbo, has urged Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq to address the pressing issue of illegal and overstayed Transition Implementation Chairmen (TIC) across the sixteen local government areas.
Lukman is the the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Candidate for Ojomu/Balogun Constituency in the 2023 general election in Kwara State.
Lukman emphasized the deteriorating state of affairs, pointing out the alarming rise in insecurity, poorly supervised projects, and a lack of positive impact on the lives of Kwarans. The call for a change in leadership stems from concerns about the governor’s governing style, which has led to a perceived absence of significant progress.
The appeal extends to Governor Abdulrahman to consider either conducting local government elections in the coming year or appointing new faces to replace the longstanding illegal TIC Chairmen. Lukman argues that maintaining the current status quo is neither morally nor administratively justifiable, as the appointed leaders, originally intended for a short-term role, have now overstayed for nearly three years.
Expressing the urgency of the matter, Lukman urged the governor to provide Kwara people with a glimmer of hope by replacing the TIC chairmen with individuals capable of effecting positive change. The plea resonates beyond political interests, with a focus on the welfare of the people and a desire for effective, functional local government administration.
As Lukman articulates his new year request, he emphasizes that the call is not driven by political motives but by a genuine concern for the well-being of the people. The plea concludes with a call to critical stakeholders within and outside the ruling party to join in the collective effort to rescue Kwara State from the challenges posed by the prolonged tenure of illegal TIC Chairmen.
Hon. Comr Salahudeen A Lukman affirms that Kwara people deserve better leadership, and the time for change is now.
