I had a productive meeting with His Majesty, King Charles III of England who is also the Head of the Commonwealth, and a passionate climate advocate.

The meeting was a significant step in strengthening the partnership between Nigeria and the United Kingdom, and I am optimistic about the positive impact our joint efforts will have on our planet’s future as we look forward to setting an equitable global standard for environmental stewardship at #COP28.

“You hired me in Mobil, an oil company when i needed it the most, and you stood by me to do well. I do sincerely appreciate and will never forget.

Years after, God gave me the opportunity to be the President my country, Africa’s largest oil producer, I in turn hired you to chair the board of my country’s largest oil company, the NNPCL”

Such is the case between President Tinubu and Chief Pius Akinyelure.
Only true son of his parents keeps his trusts, relationships and honors all the goods done to him with good.

President Tinubu keeps his promises, relationships and engagement. He is a true child of destiny.

I learnt a great lesson here.

May God bless Bola Ahmed Tinubu, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

On Friday, I inaugurated members of the Kwara State Education Trust Fund Board in Ilorin. The inauguration of the board was another strategic step towards providing the right environment for excellent learning outcomes for the Kwara child and to enable sustainable development in our state.

A few months ago at an education event on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, I said that investing in education is the urgency of now. This notion has been the main driver of the many reforms we have carried out in the education sector.

We have up-skilled and resourced thousands of teachers, and empowered tens of thousands of students with essential learning materials and more conducive school environments. Our teachers are reporting rapid improvements among their students. This growth is not only reported internally. Recently, Kwara passed the appraisal and was included in the World Bank's Adolescent Girls Initiative for Learning and Empowerment programme.

Moreover, our children are already posting great performances on the national stage. We can see that from the recent UBEC school debate, which Kwara won again after having won last year's edition, and is set to represent Nigeria in the Republic of Serbia in Europe for an international school debate.

Notwithstanding these feats, we are not resting on our oars. If we are to deliver the promised dramatic improvements in learning outcomes in public schools for all children across Kwara State, we need strong oversight, strategic direction, and resources that will ensure longevity.

This is where the Kwara State Education Trust Fund Board comes in. A critical component of our Kwara State Education Transformation Agenda (KWETA), the board will mobilise resources to support infrastructural development and growth in our education sector. It will help us build stakeholder partnerships and ensure our educational investments are effective, efficient, and aligned with our goals.

We have made a deliberate choice of the distinguished chairman, secretary, and every member of this board. Their great pedigrees speak clearly of what they bring to the table. I am confident, therefore, that the board will play a key role in helping to solidify educational transformation in Kwara State.

Kwara North: The Retrospective
By Mohammed Haruna Likpata

It may seem like a story telling, but an act that deserves a kind hearted freedom of thoughts in a complicated society like ours. We are humans that cannot outweigh the history and as such, it is very important as a matter of fact we have the courage to make certain decisions as may be required.

By the special grace of Allah, I am a member of All Progressive Congress (APC) by the virtues of my constitutional rights to choose a political party at all times and I was a Member of People’s Democratic Party (PDP) by the virtue of that Constitutional right. I am confined by my convictions to write this piece in clarifying certain aspects of my views on why our Governor, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazak was elected and voted for by Kwara North to complete his second term in Office.

Success they say is achieved by developing our strengths, not by eliminating our fears-Marilyn Savani. And Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution- Aristotle.

These two quotes are typical scenario of majority of Kwara Northerners that have greatly being misunderstood and misrepresented in the political scheming of Kwara State. Even among some Kwara Northerners, there are still some doubt in notions of misrepresentation of our people in regards to political process and involvements in the scheme of affairs in the State.

I will paint two scenarios that has had great impact in our political journey in the State. These scenarios will serve as a driving force and guide as we move into the future in the political landscape of Kwara State. One scenario was a case of political independence by Kwara Northerners and the second scenario was a case of comparing available opportunities and developments of Kwara North. Either way, a decision was made by the electorates and the results were announced.

This article become so necessary following the debates in some quotas about 2023 elections in the State. The election wasn’t between Kwara North against other parties, but an engagement and involvement of different political parties in the State. Yet, Kwara North was being misunderstood as weak, vulnerable and cannot withstand the political stability in Kwara State.

Kwara North is not weak and vulnerable, instead their strengths are being tested and glorified going into the future. At all times, eighty percent (80%) of Kwara North decide what they want at a particular period in championing their political journey. This is not by accident, but with high intentions and deliberate actions.

Let me give a brief background that portray a bigger picture about Kwara North as a people. Many are of the opinion that Kwara North is divided based on the two Federal Constituencies. Kwara North is a far distant region from one community to the other. Traveling from Edu/Moro/Patigi/ axis where I come from down to Baruten/Kaiama with a far distance of about 9 to 10 hours of a single journey.

It is a land that is blessed with abundance natural resources, yet the potentials are not yet recognized. It is a land that has common trade opportunities among her people that will attract international market and investments, yet opportunities not harnessed . It is a land with rich cultural heritage that is uncommon, yet not multiculturally embraced.

This article is written to further strengthen the bond among Kwara Northerners beyond the existing political ties and peaceful coexistence among the Nupes, Batonus, Bakobaru, Yorubas and Fulanis that are always being misunderstood by the political interests.

This does not in anyway dispel the truth of public political perspectives of those who choose to believe what they rarely know about Kwara Northerners.

In Government House Ilorin this this weekend, I hosted the six public school students who won the presidential debate competition in Abuja. These students are the pride of the government and people of Kwara State. We have rewarded each of them with N1m cash gift and state scholarship for their undergraduate studies in any discipline in Nigeria.

During the meeting, I commended the champions for their impressive outing, while also thanking their parents, teachers, and leadership of the Kwara State Universal Basic Education Board (KWSUBEB) for their roles in the feat.

The debate team, which comprised exclusively students from public schools, included Mashood Kamaldeen (Government Secondary School, Ilorin East); Jatto Ramatallahi (Offa Grammar School, Offa); Jimoh Abayomi Emmanuel (Tanke Community Junior Secondary School, Ilorin South); Emmanuel Chioma (St. Anthony Junior Secondary School, Ilorin East); Dolapo Mariam (Offa Grammar School, Offa); and AbdulKareem Uswat (Okelele Junior Secondary School Ilorin East).

With their latest victory, the champions will now represent Nigeria at the World School Debate Championship in the Republic of Serbia in Europe. The state is proud of them, as they carry the flags as ambassadors of the state.

There is a lot to be done in our curriculum and in education. We know where we are coming from, but we are committed to beating our own record. Our aim is not just to top education in Northern Nigeria but in Nigeria as a whole. We can achieve that. We just have to be deliberate in our quest for what we want to achieve.
