June 12: Kwara Gov., AbdulRazaq celebrates democracy day with special needs children
In commemoration of the June 12 democracy day, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, the Kwara State Governor and Chairman of Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF), on Monday, visited Kwara State school for special needs, located at Apata Yakuba, in Ilorin, the state capital to celebrate with the children, a not-so-surprising carryover of his deep affiliation with the underserved communities since his assumption of office in 2019.
In a statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Rafiu Ajakaye, said the governor was accompanied by school officials to inspect some facilities in the school, which include classrooms recently fixed by the administration and those freshly affected by rainstorms.
The governor also interacted with the school head Abdulganiyu Olododo on pending issues in the school that once hosted the government’s budget review sessions, a gesture he said was meant to refocus attention on the plights of the students and other underserved communities in the state.
Governor AbdulRazaq, however, took photographs with the elated children and their tutors while cheering them in a symbolic gesture of his commitment to always support the underprivileged to attain their full potentials.
