Gov. AbdulRazaq joins APC gov campaign flag off in Kogi

Gov. AbdulRazaq joins APC gov campaign flag off in Kogi

Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq will today join his brother-Governors and elders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the official flag off of the Governorship Campaign in neighbouring Kogi State.

Recently rated as the most performing Governor in the country’s North Central Region, AbdulRazaq was recently nominated among the APC Governors to lead the re-election campaign of his counterpart in Kogi, Governor Yahya Bello.

The party had recently inaugurated a 56-member National Campaign Council to prosecute the Kogi election.

That comes amid rising national commendations that have greeted AbdulRazaq’s progressive policies in Kwara State, including the nomination of nine women, or 56.25% of total cabinet pick, as commissioner-designates.

The More Women Group, an amalgam of at least 169 women bodies across Nigeria, on Friday issued a statement praising AbdulRazaq for breaking the yoke of poor representation of women and youths in governance in Nigeria.

A statement signed by Dr Abiola Akiyode Afolabi and Ms Felicia Onibon on behalf of the group said “this gesture will be recorded in history as the first of its kind in Nigeria….The appointment demonstrates his support for women voices and serves as a recognition of their relevance in the society.”

The More Women Group has long established itself as the voice of women, including female professionals and experts representing different regions, ethnicities, economic, social and political allegiances as well as organisations for youths and persons with disabilities.

The group said “modelling a best practice of this nature is important for the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). We therefore applaud the first SHERO Governor for breaking the cycle of women’s exclusion in Nigeria. We applaud the All Progressives Congress (APC) for supporting this development in the state and call on all other state Governors to imbibe the culture of equitable representation for better and prosperous governance.”
