Shettima Launches 4,000 Job Garment Factory in Kwara

On September 16, 2026, Vice President Senator Kashim Shettima commissioned a garment factory in Ilorin, Kwara State, which is designed to employ at least 4,000 people at full capacity. He also inaugurated the 11-storey Kwara Revenue Service (KWRS) House.
These events were part of the ceremony marking the turbaning of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq as the first Sardauna of Ilorin by the Emir of Ilorin, HRH Alhaji (Dr.) Ibrahim Kolapo Sulu-Gambari. During the ceremony, Shettima praised the legacy of continuity upheld by Governor AbdulRazaq, referencing the governor's late father, Alhaji AbdulGaniyu Folorunsho AbdulRazaq, SAN, who was Northern Nigeria's first lawyer and the first Mutawalle of Ilorin.
Shettima emphasized the importance of legacy and the responsibilities that come with a surname, reflecting on the bond between the AbdulRazaq family and the Ilorin Emirate.
