He stressed\u00a0 that the Federal Government&#8217;s Ajase Ipo to Erin Ile Road remains in serious disrepair despite being a major road in Kwara South which Ajibola represents\u00a0 in the Senate.<br \/>\nOn the issue of rehabilitated schools, Governor Ahmed stated that his administration has rehabilitated 400 blocks of classrooms at Primary and Secondary levels across the state, including the School for Special Needs, Ilorin, GSS Agbamu, GSS Omode, GSS, Afon, GHS Ilorin, Mount Carmel,\u00a0 Ilorin, and CSS Lade, to mention a few.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"message\" class=\"statusbar\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kwara State Governor, Alhaji\u00a0 Abdulfatah Ahmed has advised the People&#8217;s Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the forthcoming gubernatorial elections in the state, Senator Simon Ajibola to stop telling lies in&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18359,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-35536","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
