Kwara Traditional Rulers Must Stay Above Partisan Politics
It is deeply troubling to see some traditional rulers in Kwara State gradually turning themselves into active political players, moving from one political gathering to another and even shuttling to Abuja in pursuit of the APC governorship ticket or aligning openly with partisan interests. This development is not only disappointing, but also dangerous for the dignity, neutrality, and sacredness of our traditional institutions.
Traditional rulers are not political office holders. They are custodians of culture, symbols of unity, and fathers to all—regardless of political party, religion, or social status. Their thrones are meant to command respect, preserve peace, and protect the interests of their people, not to be dragged into the muddy waters of partisan politics.
At a time when many communities across Kwara State are facing serious security challenges, communal tensions, youth restiveness, and other social concerns, one would expect our royal fathers to be more focused on their primary responsibilities: protecting lives and property, promoting peace, and serving as moral voices in their domains. Sadly, some appear to be more concerned about political relevance and power negotiations than the safety and wellbeing of the people they were appointed to lead and protect.
As concerned citizens, we must speak out. Our traditional rulers need to wake up to their responsibilities and remember that the respect attached to their stools is earned through service, wisdom, neutrality, and integrity—not through political alignment or ambition. Once a traditional ruler becomes openly partisan, he risks losing the trust of the people, compromising the sanctity of the throne, and exposing the institution to ridicule and possible consequences, including calls for removal.
The traditional institution must remain sacred and independent. It should not be reduced to a political tool in the hands of desperate politicians or ambitious royal fathers seeking relevance in government circles. Politics is a risky game, and when traditional rulers play it carelessly, they not only stain their own image but also endanger the legacy of the throne they occupy.
Kwara traditional rulers must therefore retrace their steps, stay away from partisan politics, and focus on the core duties expected of them by history, culture, and the people. The throne is too important to be used as a platform for political bargaining.
A word is enough for the wise:
Kwara traditional rulers should stop playing politics with the throne before politics destroys the honour of the throne itself.

Following the appointment of the 13th Chief Imam of Ilorin, Al-Imam Muhammad Bashir Dasuki (Imam Fulani), I have reflected on many valuable lessons as a young individual and member of the youth community.
This historic appointment reminds us of the importance of being productive, resourceful, and purposeful in life—not merely for today’s comfort or immediate gratification, but in preparation for the future, which remains known only to Allah. It is a powerful lesson that dedication, patience, good character, and service to humanity are always rewarded in due time.
The appointment also showcases the remarkable unity of the Ilorin Emirate, especially in matters concerning religion. It demonstrates the deep respect and reverence that the people of Ilorin have for Islam, our traditional institutions, and our royal fathers. The peaceful and dignified process further reflects the strength of our values, heritage, and communal harmony.
As an individual, I wholeheartedly congratulate the new Chief Imam, Al-Imam Muhammad Bashir Dasuki, on this well-deserved appointment. I pray that Almighty Allah grants him wisdom, good health, long life, and immense success as he embarks on this noble and sacred responsibility. May his tenure bring continued spiritual growth, peace, and progress to the Ilorin Emirate and beyond.
Congratulations to the good people of Ilorin Emirate on this historic occasion.
May Allah bless the new Chief Imam and preserve the unity and prosperity of Ilorin Emirate. Ameen.

Engr @SBKforgovernor stands out in the 2027 governorship journey as a visionary leader committed to building a Greater Kwara. His reputation for competence, humility, and a genuine passion for service places him among the most promising figures dedicated to the growth and development of our dear state.
As a respected member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), SBK continues to demonstrate a leadership style rooted in inclusiveness, integrity, and progress. Though the party has yet to announce its consensus candidate, SBK’s profile and contributions have already positioned him as a beacon of hope for many Kwarans who desire purposeful and people-focused governance.
Central to SBK’s mission is a well-designed development agenda anchored on strategic pillars essential to any progressive society. These pillars—Infrastructure, Health Care, Education, Youth Empowerment, Good Governance, and Security—reflect his commitment to building a Kwara that works for everyone, irrespective of class, location, or background.
His vision for Infrastructure prioritizes modern roads, efficient transportation networks, and upgraded public facilities. SBK believes that a well-connected Kwara inspires growth, supports commerce, and creates opportunities across all local government areas.
In Health Care, SBK champions accessible and affordable medical services. His plan includes revitalizing hospitals, equipping primary health centers, and expanding community-based health programs to improve overall wellbeing and reduce preventable health challenges.

Collectively, these pillars form SBK’s blueprint for a Greater Kwara—a state where development is intentional, leadership is compassionate, and progress is shared by all. His message remains firm: Tested, Trusted, and Ready to Serve.

Hon. Yusuf Eletu Saka (YES) is that leader. As politics advances, let every youth, woman, elder, community leader, and stakeholder rise with one voice and declare: YES to progress, YES to development, YES to a better Ilorin East and South Federal Constituency.
With Hon. Yusuf Eletu Saka, victory is not just possible — it is assured. With YES, the future begins now.@bukolasaraki@Kwara_PDP
HON. YUSUF ELETU SAKA (YES): THE PEOPLE’S VOICE, THE PEOPLE’S STRENGTH — BY COMR. HUSSAIN AGBARERE
In every generation, a people are blessed with leaders who rise not because of privilege, but because of purpose. These are men and women who carry the cries, dreams, and expectations of their people in their hearts. They understand that representation is not a title, but a task — a sacred responsibility. For the good people of Ilorin East and South Federal Constituency, Hon. Yusuf Eletu Saka, popularly known as YES, stands today as that leader: a man of vision, a man of wisdom, and a true man of the people.
Hon. Yusuf Eletu Saka is more than a politician; he is a symbol of hope, capacity, and responsible leadership. His name echoes across communities because he represents something unique and refreshing — a promise that governance can still be humane, responsive, and genuinely people-driven. In him, the constituency sees a leader they can trust, believe in, and walk confidently behind.
Many know him by the acronym YES, but within the constituency, the name has grown to mean much more than a simple identity. It has become a powerful affirmation — affirmation of development, empowerment, equity, and good governance. His journey has always been rooted in humility and service. He understands the struggles of the common man because he has walked alongside the people, shared their burdens, and worked tirelessly to provide realistic and sustainable solutions.
His engagements across wards, communities, youth associations, women groups, and traditional institutions show one clear quality: Hon. Yusuf Eletu Saka is a leader who listens. In an era where many seek public office for personal gain, he stands as a shining example of selfless leadership, driven by a genuine passion to uplift people and transform lives.
He represents a new breed of public office holders — vibrant, accessible, development-driven, digitally aware, and deeply rooted in the cultural values of Ilorin Emirate. He speaks the language of the youth, understands the needs of women, and respects the wisdom and guidance of elders. This rare mix of attributes places him as a bridge between generations; a unifier capable of bringing all segments of society together for collective progress.
What sets YES apart is his focus on real, measurable impact rather than political grammar. His developmental priorities speak directly to the needs of the constituency — quality education that prepares the next generation for global relevance, economic empowerment programmes that uplift young entrepreneurs, health initiatives that bring medical care closer to vulnerable communities, agricultural and infrastructural support that strengthens livelihoods, and welfare interventions that restore dignity and hope.
Three words define the character of Hon. Yusuf Eletu Saka: Character, Competence, and Compassion. He has consistently demonstrated that political power should be used to uplift rather than suppress; to unite rather than divide; and to build rather than destroy. These virtues distinguish him as the right choice for Ilorin East and South Federal Constituency.
The growing support he enjoys across the constituency is a clear reflection of a collective realization — the time has come for a leader who truly understands the people’s needs and has the strength, integrity, and vision to fight for their future. YES represents that future. YES represents that hope. YES represents that strength.
He is the people’s voice, speaking boldly for the masses. He is the people’s strength, standing firmly on the side of justice, equity, and development. His candidacy is not just a political option; it is a people’s mandate shaped by trust, grounded in service, and driven by a shared dream of progress.
Ilorin East and South deserve a leader who will not forget the people after elections. A leader who will turn promises into projects and dreams into development.
