The Kwara State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Elders Caucus has endorsed a governorship candidate from the Kwara North senatorial district. The group made the call during a meeting in Ilorin, with Chief James Bamisaiye Ayeni speaking on its behalf. He urged Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq to initiate early consultations for selecting party candidates ahead of the next election. The caucus emphasized unity and consensus in the candidate selection process. No specific name was proposed for the governorship slot. The statement reflects ongoing political dynamics within the APC in Kwara State.
Backing a candidate from Kwara North without naming one suggests internal calculations are still unfolding. Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq now faces pressure to align party structure with emerging expectations. If he resists, the unity the elders claim to seek may unravel faster than it was announced. This move is less about geography and more about who gets to decide.
