The Governor of Kwara State, Abdulrahman AbdulRazaq on Monday affirmed that he is part of the Northern governor calling for a power shift to the South ahead of the 2023 presidential election.

Abdulrazaq stated this in a statement released by his Special Adviser on Political Communications, Bashir Adigun.

According to Adigun, the governor did not immediately sign the resolution because he was at his niece’s wedding.

Abdulrazaq said, “We have been inundated with enquiries on whether our Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq supports the resolution of Northern leaders on Power Shift to Southern Nigeria.

“We like to state emphatically that the Governor was ab initio fully part of the meeting and resolution of the Northern leaders that the next President should come from Southern part of the country.”

“the Governor could not immediately sign the resolution of the meeting because he was at his niece’s wedding held on Saturday, June 4, 2022, where he was the chief host.

“Governor AbdulRazaq’s Northern colleagues were thus unable to wait for his physical signature on the resolution because they needed to send it to the President immediately.
