Ilorin Chief Imam: Kwara PDP Calls Gov Abdularzaq’s Car Gift ‘Reactive Action’, Commends Saraki

Kwara State PDP has commended the leader of the party in the state, who is also the Waziri Ngeri of Ilorin, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, for his exemplary display of responsible leadership through the presentation of a brand-new Toyota Land Cruiser, a cash donation of ₦5 million, and provision of other logistical support to the new Chief Imam of Ilorin, Sheikh Muhammed Bashir Dansuki.

‘We find it very remarkable that immediately upon his arrival in Ilorin, Dr. Saraki proceeded straight to the residence of the Chief Imam to pay homage and congratulate him on his appointment before presenting a brand- new Toyota Land Cruiser as a gift to him. He also added cash donation and other items to aid his religious and community responsibilities’ the state Publicity Secretary, Mr Olusegun Olusola Adewara submitted in a statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com on Wednesday.

 The party however expressed disappointment that Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, who reportedly promised to make vehicles available to the Chief Imam about two months ago, failed to fulfil that promise until Wednesday while urging Kwarans not to be surprised that ‘the governor hurriedly procured and present his own vehicle to the Chief Imam in reaction to Dr. Saraki’s generosity’.

‘For close to two months, the welfare needs of the Chief Imam received no attention from the governor despite his promise. It would therefore be unfortunate if the government suddenly wakes up only after Dr. Saraki had once again, demonstrated what genuine leadership looks like. Kwarans should see through such a hurried attempt at image management.

Leadership is measured by timely action, not by promises that have to wait for Saraki’s action to be executed’ the party said..

The statement noted that the Ilorin Emirate remains one of the foremost Islamic strongholds in the country, stressing that every effort aimed at strengthening its religious institutions and supporting its spiritual leadership is an investment in peace, unity, and the preservation of the Emirate’s rich heritage adding that Dr. Saraki’s action reflects the values of compassion, service, respect for traditional and religious institutions, and a genuine commitment to the welfare of the people.

The PDP thanked Dr. Saraki for once again, setting the standard for selfless leadership and reminding those in government that public service is about standing with the people when they need support the most, not about political desperation, succession calculations, or public relations exercises.

Dr. Saraki’s consistent investments in the wellbeing of communities and institutions across Kwara State have according to the party continued to distinguish him as a leader whose commitment to the people goes beyond holding public office.

‘We call on the people of the Ilorin Emirate and Kwarans at large to remain vigilant, continue supporting the Waziri Ngeri of Ilorin in his people-centred interventions, and rally behind the PDP as the credible alternative that has consistently demonstrated compassion, responsibility, and genuine leadership’ the statement added-Team@orientactualmags.com  Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
