PDP Governorship Candidate in Kwara Reneges on Monetary Promise to Delegates
The Peoples Democratic Party's governorship candidate for Kwara State, Shuaib Yaman Abdullahi, is allegedly broke. Abdullahi emerged the winner of the party's governorship primary a few weeks ago. He allegedly paid his way to victory before he was eventually endorsed by the national leader of the party in the state, Dr Bukola Saraki.
Having spent so much money to gain support from party chieftains in the state, the politician allegedly became broke but promised to give each delegate the sum of N50,000 each if he emerged the winner of the primary election. A total of 596 elected delegates voted during the primary election from the 579 wards in Kwara. Abdullahi had planned to fulfill his promise to the delegates from the proceeds of a business deal he was expecting after the election, but unfortunately things did not work in his favour.
Some of the delegates are already grumbling and accusing the politician of lying to them. They expressed their displeasure with his attitude and are already doubting if he will be able to live up to his promises, if he eventually wins the governorship election in 2023. He is alleged to have requested more time to fulfill the promise he made to the delegates, while pledging to make up for defaulting.
