The All Progressive Congress (APC) in Kwara State has charged the newly
posted Police Commissioner to the State, Ambrose Aisabo to discharge his
responsibility without fear or favour by rising above tendencies that
could make him partisan.
The Interim Chairman of APC in the State, Alhaji Ishola Balogun Fulani who
gave the charge at a press conference in Ilorin, added that the party was
ready to work with the new Police Commissioner, but had reservation that
his posting might have ulterior inclinations.
According to Ishola: “We have it on good authority that the new
Commissioner of Police has been allegedly posted to Kwara State at the
instance of the frustrated members of the PDP in the State and to fulfil
the PDP’s agenda of intimidating our members and frustrating our
constitutional rights to free association, freedom of expression and
peaceful assembly”.
The APC Chairman asserted that Kwara State as a State with APC majority
will resist any attempt to use the Nigeria Police or any security agency
to curtail the constitutional rights of its members.
He, however, urged APC members in the State to remain law abiding,
steadfast and confident of continued victory in all elections as the
party has shown that it is the most formidable in the State.
Alhaji Ishola described the APC membership registration in the State as
very successful as many people in the State had formalised their
membership of the party.
“While the collation is on-going, we can safely say that APC has more than
One Million registered members in Kwara State alone. Like a tornado, APC
has swept through Kwara State and established that indeed we are the only
party worthy of the name in the State”, he said.
