In Oct 2024, N24.5m was paid to the Mcwell Resources Ltd for the Flood and Erosion Control Works at Yidi Ilorin, Kwara state in the 2024 FG Budget.

We tracked and report that the road has been constructed and drainage systems have been constructed through Yidi.

N100m was allocated to the Training and Empowerment of Artisans across Kwara South Senatorial District, Kwara state in the 2023 FG Budget.

We tracked and report that this project has not been done.
We call on INDUSTRIAL ARBITRATION PANEL, the implementing agency, to provide the public with details of this project and facilitate its execution.

[Tracka @TrackaNG]

N80m was allocated to the Erosion Control and Construction of Forest Road, Catchment Close Ilorin, Kwara State, in the 2023 FG Budget.

We tracked and report that this project was poorly done. Forest road was constructed with drainage on only one side of the road. Two branching culverts that lead into the catchment close and forest road were also constructed.

We call on @NSPRI_Official, the implementing agency to call the contractor, A3 INTERBIZ LINK SERVICES LTD, back to site to correct this shoddy job done.

@followKWSG @RealAARahman A whole governor just celebrating this boy excellence with words! Why not give him scholarship to further his education to encourage other student to study hard

[Aremu Ridwan @REALLUCAS20]

@followKWSG @RealAARahman Good. The govt should give the brilliant boy Scholarship to study in any Nigerian Varsities.

[official juniour4u @juniour4_u]

@followKWSG @RealAARahman Instead of celebrating him with sweet words, why not grant him educational scholarship to finish his higher education. I believe Kwara state government should do better in encouraging brilliant student like him

[Sunday Oluwamola @SOluwamola]

@followKWSG @RealAARahman If it was campaign time, the governor handlers would have given the boy financial support. Pls sir @RealAARahman, add financial reward to your sweet words.

Gov AbdulRazaq celebrates Kwara boy Ololade with all-A WAEC result

Kwara State Governor @RealAARahman sends hearty congratulations to Master Adesina Shalom Ololade, a Kwara student who recently scored As (excellent) in all the nine subjects he attempted in the West African Senior Secondary School Examination (WASSCE).

Ololade also went on to record an impressive 298 in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), again confirming his extraordinary brilliance.

The Governor said the outstanding results attest to the hard work, brilliance, focus, and family support that Ololade brought to bear in his studies.

The family especially deserves a pat on the back for the great upbringing, discipline, and efforts that shaped Ololade to become a pride of their clan, the Governor added.

The Governor urges the brilliant lad to remain focused as he continues on a promising academic journey that, with faith in God, is certain to bear sweet fruits for him, his family and the larger society.

Resident, Abdulkareem Uthman, stated that the budget for the 2021 Zonal Intervention Projects (ZIPs) provided to them by UDEME captured many projects for their constituency. However, their community did not benefit from any nor hear of such projects.

[Udeme.africa @UDEMEAfrica]

Community Advisor, Alhaji Saka Kawu, suggested that the government set up trackers to inspect the level of work done on projects and ensure they are inserted in the subsequent year's budget until they are completed.
