Kwara PDP Flags Off Campaign With Prayer

Date: 2015-01-16

The Kwara State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Friday kicked off its campaign for the 2015 general election in an unusual manner.

Instead of holding a rally, the party kick- started its campaign with a special prayer held at Ilorin Eid praying ground.

Leaders and supporters of PDP leaders as well as executive members and three former governorship aspirants of the party attended the prayer led by a renowned cleric in Ilorin, Alhaji Mohammed Ali.
The party,it was learnt will hold similar prayer at a church on Sunday.

Other party stalwart that attended yesterday’s prayer session included the pioneer PDP Chairman in the state, Barrister Kunle Sulyman, Alhaji Jani Ibrahim, Architect Kale Belgore and Alhaji Hakeem Lawal.

It would be recalled that 12 aspirants contested the PDP primary won by Senator Simeon Sule Ajibola who currently represents Kwara South in the Senate.

Ajibola would be challenging the incumbent Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed in the February 21 election.

The party said the prayer was designed to pray for peace and security in the state before, during and after the election.

Speaking at the prayer, one of the governorship aspirants, Lawal who is the son of a former Governor of the state, late Mohammed Lawal said the party was confident of victory in the forthcoming elections, saying, “Whatever you begin with prayer definitely, success is assured.”
