Common Vision Responsible For Cordial Legislative, Executive Relationship In Kwara, Says Adetiba
The Deputy Speaker, Kwara State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Raphael Adetiba has attributed the cordial relationship between the Legislative and Executive Arms of government in the state to a common vision.
The Deputy Speaker made this known in an interview with Tribune Online on Tuesday in Lagos.
Adetiba explained that the common determination to change the narrative of the state prompted what was called Otoge.
He noted that the movement was not a party decision; Hence, the reason everyone said Otoge to the then administration and subscribed to the candidature of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“What accounts for the smooth relationship between the legislative and the executive in Kwara state is a common vision.
“Common determination to change the narrative of the state. And that was what prompted what was called Otoge.
“I can tell you as a party man that the movement was not a party decision. It was a Kwara movement and that was why every rank and file said Otoge to the then administration.
“So, I tell people that the Otoge movement goes beyond APC in Kwara. Regardless of party affiliation, everyone took the option of the APC candidature; Hence, we had a chance with the alternative party of APC in 2019,” He said.
Meanwhile, Adetiba who is representing the Oke Ero constituency described legislative business as a business for the people's welfare and the voice of the voiceless.
He added that it is the business of people's representation in policy-making, law-making, oversight business and ensuring that taxpayers' funds are prudently utilized vis-a-vis interpretation between people and government's functionaries.
