The Labour Party Governorship candidate in Kwara state, Basambo Abubakar has formed alliance with the People Democratic party in the state.
Basambo flanked by party chieftain at a Press Comference in Ilorin on Monday directed his supporters to vote the PDP Governorship candidate Alh, Shuaib Yaman.
He said the All Progressive Congress has the will to provide Kwara a true leadership.
He said, “Having witnessed the pattern of government and leadership in the last Four years, the reality in Kwara is a government built on deceit; run on pretenses; and led through dishonesty and lacking intelligent ideas or inspiring agenda. From lack of transparency in the financial management of the state to the shallow thinking in envisioning of a greater Kwara to outright financial banditry of the state revenue and a divisive leadership, it is glaring that the state government of APC led by Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq cannot deliver that Greater Kwara of our dream.
“While I am very passionate about this dream, I am equally pragmatic to believe that great Kwarans need to align their dreams and political ambitions and work together to defeat a leadership that steeped in pedestrianism and pettiness as exemplified by the AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq-led administration.
“Therefore, having seen the situation in our dear state so far, I and my supporters including my political structure have decided to align our ambition with a party that represents greater prospect; form a unity government and birth a working Kwara in order to rescue our today as well as our tomorrow from further decadence.
“Today, I’m combining efforts with the People’s Democratic Party and Alhaji Abdullahi Shuaib Yaman to birth our collective dream for a prosperous Kwara. It is this my conviction that my personal ambition cannot be bigger than a collective opportunity to provide an all inclusive governance, which I and my party will be part of. I hereby call on our esteem supporters across board in all local governments and wards to cast their votes for the governorship candidate of the PDP, Alhaji Abdullah Shuaib Yaman. Because we have both decided to work together as a team to provide the true leadership needed to make Kwara a greater state, which is in tandem with my aspiration as the governorship candidate of the Labour Party in Kwara state.
“Meanwhile! As we work to form a unity government with the PDP in the state, our party remain committed to getting back the mandate of our leader and presidential candidate Mr Peter Obi as he continues to fight for justice in the court.”
