Kwara Received N38.7bn From Federation Account In 2013 - Ahmed

Date: 2014-06-04

The Kwara State government said it earned only N38.7 billion from the federation account in 2013 as one of the least benefiting states.

It, however, said that despite the meager resources at its disposal it succeeded in sustaining its infrastructure and human capital development programmes by being resourceful and continuing the programme of the immediate past administration.

The state governor, Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed who disclosed this when the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) paid him a courtesy visit at the Government House, Ilorin, added that the continuity programme had ensured the completion of the International Diagnostic Centre, Share township road, Offa/Ira, Ganmo/Afon, Ijara-Isin/Isin, Omu-Aran-Landmark University and Tsaragi market roads, among others in Kwara Central, while all processes for the Kaiama-Kishi road, a federal government road, have been completed, awaiting release of funds to the contractors.

Ahmed who advised the opposition party to criticise constructively rather than its current posture of being manifestly against progressive policies of government to gain undeserved relevance, said the continuity programme of the administration had also resulted in taking the International Aviation College and the Kwara State University to the next level.

He said it was obvious from the membership registration and the convention it had, that APC had shown it was the major party in Kwara State, while the movement from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was premised on the need to ensure sustained progressive agenda of the government.

The APC chairman, Alhaji Ishola Balogun Fulani in his remarks, commended the state government on its various developmental programmes, especially in health, education and development of infrastructure.

Balogun Fulani said with the new leadership in place, the APC in Kwara State has become more strengthened.
