…PBAT Founder Tompolo Donates 34 Campaign Vehicles to Kwara APC
Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq on Monday inaugurated the President Bola Tinubu (PBAT) Door-to-Door Movement in Ilorin.
The Governor while inaugurating the group’s executives amidst cheers from thousands of Kwara APC members and supporters implored them convey the impacts of the Renewed Hope Agenda of Tinubu to all the nooks and crannies of the state.
AbdulRazaq commended the leadership of the movement for establishing a platform to communicate the life-changing policies and programmes of the Federal Government to the people.
He charged the members to listen to the concerns of the people, provide feedback to the government and communicate its programmes effectively.
His words: “The movement must not only take government messages to the people but also bring their concerns back to the relevant authorities to guide policy adjustments and improve living standards.”
AbdulRazaq called for cooperation between the movement and all APC structures from the National leadership to ward’s officials and polling unit committees, saying they are all working for a common goal.
This initiative must be sustained beyond the inauguration ceremony and its activities should translate into continuous grassroots engagement rather than a one-off event, he added.
Speaker Kwara State House of Assembly and APC Gubernatorial candidate, Rt Hon Salihu Yakubu Danladi, for his part, said Kwarans will vote massively for APC, given that Governor AbdulRazaq’s achievements are visible across 193 wards of the state.
Danladi said the Governor has performed exceedingly well in various sectors including the areas of infrastructural development, civil service, pension administration, and the welfare of youths, women and senior citizens.
According to him, APC has sufficient achievements to campaign on and does not need to resort to insulting political opponents
“Tinubu is for Kwara, and Kwara is for Tinubu. By God’s grace, 2027 is for the APC. We know where we are today, and we are moving forward,” he declared
State APC Chairman, Prince Sunday Fagbemi, expressed confidence in the party’s prospects ahead of the 2027 general elections, insisting that the APC is determined to win all elective positions in the state.
Fagbemi said the party remained committed to securing victory for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the governorship candidate, and all APC candidates contesting National and State Assembly seats.
He dismissed claims of alternative political arrangements in Kwara, maintaining that the party’s position had been reinforced by statements from President Tinubu and the Minister of FCT, while warning opposition groups against relying on financial inducements to challenge the APC.
Founder and Grand Patron of the Movement, High Chief Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo (a.k.a Tompolo), urged the people of State to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and other All Progressives Congress (APC) candidates in the 2027 general elections.
Represented by High Chief Kestin Pondi, Ekpemupolo said electing APC candidates across all levels of government will strengthen the President’s ability to implement policies aimed at stabilizing the economy and national development.
National Coordinator PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, Comrade Sunday Adekanbi Asuku, urged the people of Kwara to massively support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu ìn the upcoming polls.
Asuku, who commended Governor AbdulRazaq’s records of service in the state and his continued support for the President, said the former is doing greatly for Kwara because of the latter’s backing.
While highlighting President Tinubu’s scorecards, the National Coordinator said the Federal Government has continued to promote industrial relations in the country, citing the absence of prolonged strikes by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
