FG Has Failed Kwarans – Gov. Ahmed

Kwara State Governor, Dr Abdulfatah Ahmed says the Peoples Democratic
Party controlled federal government has failed Kwarans as it has no
tangible achievements in the State.

Governor Ahmed made this assertion when the All Progressives Congress
campaign train made a stopover at Patigi, Kpada and Lade towns in
Patigi local government area of the state.

Governor Ahmed noted that the lack of federal government presence in
the state in terms of the provision and development of infrastructure
has become well pronounced in the last six years of the Dr Goodluck
Jonathan presidency.

The Governor therefore advised the people of the State to collect
their Permanent Voters’ Cards before the end of this month in order
not to vote a new but progressive government of the APC.

During a courtesy call on the Etsu of Patigi, Alhaji Ibrahim Chatta
Umar, Governor Ahmed said if Nigerians do not collect their PVCs they
would not be able to effect the desired democratic change in the
country.

He urged Nigerians to remain concerned about the future of the
country, stressing that only an APC government with General Muhammadu
Buhari as president is better placed to restore good governance in the
country.

On the achievements of his administration, Governor Ahmed said it has
created greater access to qualitative healthcare through the Community
Health Insurance Scheme, upgrading of general hospitals and the
provision of drugs and equipment in the health institutions.

He added that his administration was promoting entrepreneurial
development through access to loan facilities as well as employment of
over 10,200 youths through various intervention schemes.

The Governor said the Kpada-Patigi road would have been completed but
for the dwindling funds at the disposal of the state government as a
result of the shortfall in allocation from the federation account.

The Etsu of Patigi, Alhaji Ibrahim Chatta Umar urged politicians to
ensure that their campaigns were conducted peacefully by shunning all
divisive tendencies, just as he prayed for the success of APC
candidates at the polls.
