Kwara North APC Coalition Calls for Power Shift Ahead of 2027

The Kwara North APC Coalition has reiterated its demand for a power shift to the Kwara North Senatorial District in preparation for the 2027 elections. During a press conference in Okuta Town, Hon.

Abdullahi Idri, the spokesman for the coalition, emphasized the need to address the historical neglect of the region and the lopsided political calculations in the state. The coalition has expressed support for Rt.

Hon. Yakubu Danladi Salihu, the current Speaker of the State House of Assembly, urging APC stakeholders to consider him for the governorship ticket to rectify the political imbalance.

Idri highlighted Salihu's contributions to various developmental projects, including water supply and youth empowerment, while lamenting the poor road conditions and underdevelopment faced by the area. The coalition's call for a power shift has garnered support from traditional rulers and political leaders across the three senatorial districts, with Barrister Abubakar Othman describing Salihu as a capable and compassionate leader.
