Some were direct donations to me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome were sent to Kwara <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/10\/17\/apc-congress-amaechis-associate-emeka-beke-emerges-as-chairman-in-rivers\/\">APC<\/a> but there\u2019s no governor, no minister. He was sitting there in Abuja, he did not know how we held the election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe did not know how we campaigned. He was in Abuja. Ask Minister Lai Mohammed, how many times he comes to Kwara? Our two ministers don\u2019t come to Kwara. They are in Abuja. Both of them. Lai goes to Lagos. That\u2019s his home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s where his son is a member of the Lagos state house of assembly. That\u2019s where his family is. He has no house here. He doesn\u2019t come here. As our minister, he doesn\u2019t come home. Same with Gbemi Saraki. She doesn\u2019t come. So it\u2019s like we don\u2019t have a minister.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s why the pressure is on the governor. In other states, you have ministers relieving that pressure. Everything coming to the state, they stay in Abuja and hijack it. They are running from one ministry to the other to try and hijack things from Abuja. In terms of resources, they just took everything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The governor said the minister is only good with making \u201cnoise\u201d on social media, adding that he cannot win an election in his ward.<\/p>\n<p>Abdulrazaq boasted that his faction has all the members of the state house of assembly, except one who is in the minister\u2019s camp.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cThey\u2019re noisy in the media, not on ground. Lai cannot win an election in his ward. They\u2019re good with social media noise. That\u2019s all they do. But nobody\u2019s asking how each member of the state assembly emerged. How did they manipulate their way to win their seats?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was no godfather, putting people in place, everybody struggled to emerge. We would network and work with each other. No godfather. Everybody struggled in their own way. Yes, I gave money, and they also sourced money for themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo everybody struggled to win this thing. But some people will sit down and say that it is their party. It is this or that, that I don\u2019t have anybody. If I don\u2019t have anybody, I have all the legislators with me. Is that not something? Let them tell me, they have people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow many legislators do they have both in the state and national assembly on their side? It\u2019s just a whole lot of media hype. Lai came a few months ago to make noise that he sponsored the campaign, did this and that. He made a lot of noise and pushed it to NTA.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor of Kwara state, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq has stated that minister of information and culture, Lai Mohammed has no political influence in his ward.
