Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq says his administration will invest more in people-focused investment programmes and developmental projects that will impact on the poor, the vulnerable, youths and other segments of the society.
He stated this on Friday in Ilorin when the Emir of Ilorin, Dr Ibrahim Sulu Gambari,visited the Government House on the annual bareke, a royal practice as part of the sallah celebrations.
The Governor said:”We have been deliberate in ensuring that every segment of our population gets fair share of dividends of democracy within available resources. Over the past two years, we have been deliberate in reciprocating that decision.
“In 2019, the people of this state made a significant decision in electing us to govern them. Over the past two years, we have been deliberate in reciprocating that decision. We have made the people, ordinary people and the vulnerable, the centrepiece of our activities as a government.
“We have made the people, ordinary people and the vulnerable, the centrepiece of our activities as a government.
“We have launched a health insurance scheme currently benefiting over 31,000 indigents and thousands more. We have established a safety net programme under which at least, 10,000 vulnerable senior citizens are benefiting.
“Every local government area has benefited from our developmental interventions in road, water, health, and education projects.
“Recently, we concluded a recruitment, a total departure from the past. Every qualified person was given equitable opportunity to compete.
“At the end of the exercise, we engaged 4701 ICT-compliant teachers. No applicant needed anyone to speak for them before they got the job. It is a big leap for the education sector and the future of our state.”
He commended the emir and other traditional leaders for their support for the administration.
Dr. Sulu-Gambari, in his remarks, commended the Governor’s steadfastness and consistency about promoting peace and economic growth, saying his humility is however a distinguishable quality trait that endears him to the people of the state.
“In Ilorin, we are united and we are strategic to the national growth and harmony. I pray that this administration succeeds in its numerous and laudable efforts toward human capital development, innovations and infrastructures,”he said.
The Emir also acknowledged the role government in checking the spread of COVID-19 pandemic in the state.
Our Correspondent reports that the event was attended by many crème de la crème from the traditional institutions and the government.
