Bye Election:: I don't have any anointed Candidate - Hon Aisha Patigi

 The Honorable Commissioner for Local Governments and Chieftaincy Affairs, Hon. Aisha Ahman Pategi has refuted claims by some mischievous elements labeling her of imposing candidate for the imminent bye election in replacement of Late Hon Ahmad Rufai for Patigi constituency at Kwara State House of Assembly.

In a press release personally signed by the Commissioner, she stated that the primary task of a public servant is to serve the interest of the masses and not forcing opinions on them. She said, “As a leader, it is not my job to impose any person or any opinion on my people, but to do as the people want and what is expected of my person and my personality as a public servant for the people of Kwara State is to help create a Kwara of our dream in my own capacity. It is common wisdom that the voice of the people is the voice of Allah”.

She further reiterated that it is pertinent for all and sundry to eschew naysaying and support the present administration in taking Kwara to greater heights. “Who am I to impose House of Assembly member on the good people of Patigi? Leadership position is something that even the Almighty fear for us because of the required understandings and responsibilities that comes with such” she explained.

She pinpointed that the false accusation is too petty and baseless that the best job to be done by any individual is to properly situate issues with meticulousness.

“Need I remind the unprogressive writer that I am a commissioner serving under a great leader with vision and mission for this great state – H.E Mallam Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq who has tremendous gift of listening to all and then take decisions in the best interest of the state with his focus on governing with justice and fairness, ensure Kwarans are all represented regardless of party or ideology.

The Governor is always open to constructive criticism because of his belief that Kwara belongs to us all and stand to work with whomever is ready and able to contribute to build a new Kwara of our dream” she added.

The fictitious writer also labeled the Rt Hon Yakub Danladi, Speaker KWHA, who is still grieving the loss of his colleague – Hon. Ahmed Rufai (RIP) as incompetent, but today all his colleagues in the house only say if only Patigi people knew how he fought for Patigi… (another assumption faulted).

The writer of fictitious imagination speak of competence but seem to forget that only infinite source is the ONLY true source of competency.

We as a state are looking for good people – people with passion that will aign with the vision of H.E Mallam Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq to create and restore a Kwara of our dream.

To set the records straight;
1). Yes, I am a commissioner by the grace of Allah. 

2). Hon. Aliyu Ahman Pategi served the Good people of Patigi.
3). My brother Ahmadu Sardauna did serve as well for a few months, before his life was cut short.

4)Alhamdulilah, my father Alhaji Ahman Galadiman Pategi served the good people of Patigi even before independence in alliance with AGF the father of H.E, the Executive Governor of Kwara State today Mallam Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq.

More so, it is not about chasing any self-glory, it is about re-commitment to a Kwara of our dreams in line with the vision & mission of Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq led administration.

This statement is to just re-assure my admirers and real lovers of new Kwara, that the allegations against me are like pure wind with no solidity. I remain who I have ever been by special grace of Almighty Allah.

In a nutshell, we all have some serious “SHOES TO FILL” with positive criticism but not assumptions, accusations and allegations.
