Former Governor of Kwara State, Dr. AbdulFatah Ahmed has stated that the new electoral law has returned power to the electorates.

Abdulfatah said this during a stakeholders meeting with the Kwara South arm of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) yesterday in the state.

According to him, The PDP umbrella is big enough to accommodate all interests even as they shall soon experience massive decamping to the PDP from other parties including the ruling APC

He also charged them to return to their respective wards and begin mobilisation of people at the grassroots in support of the PDP.

Speaking also, The Deputy Governorship candidate of PDP, Honorable Gbenga Peter Makanjuola who spoke on behalf of PDP's gubernatorial candidate, Alhaji Shuaibu Yaman Abdullahi charged party members on unity and love as they prepare for the 2023 elections.

“Where there's no love, there can't be progress, therefore, I charge all of us to imbibe the spirit of love and unity to deliver our great party in the forthcoming general elections”- Makanjuola said

The meeting was attended by top stakeholders across the seven Local Government areas of Kwara South including Local Government Party Chairmen, the party's senatorial officials, State party Chairman, Rt.
