Kwara North APC Senatorial Aspirants Unite on Zoning, Loyalty, Peaceful Succession

Senatorial aspirants of the (APC) from Patigi Local Government Area of Kwara North Senatorial District have reaffirmed their commitment to zoning, party unity, and peaceful political succession following a strategic consultative meeting with the Etsu Patigi.

The meeting, held on Monday, May 11, 2026, was convened with the Etsu Patigi and Vice Chairman of the Kwara State Traditional Council of Chiefs, , where key political issues affecting the senatorial district were discussed.

At the end of the deliberations, the aspirants issued a communiqué stressing the need to preserve the existing zoning arrangement in Kwara North, describing it as a vital instrument for sustaining peace, fairness, and political stability across the district.

The aspirants unanimously resolved that whoever eventually emerges as the APC senatorial candidate from Patigi Local Government Area would enjoy the total support of all other contenders.

According to the communiqué, political ambition must not be allowed to divide the long-standing brotherhood among stakeholders in the area.

The aspirants also appealed to the incumbent Senator representing Kwara North, , to respect the established zoning rotation within the district.

They noted that the same arrangement played a significant role in his emergence as senator, referencing his publication titled “How I Became a Senator in 30 Days.”

The group further recalled the role played by Patigi people during the 2023 elections, stating that despite having two prominent sons from Patigi on the ballot, the local government delivered bloc votes in support of Senator Sadiq Suleiman Umar to ensure his successful return to the Senate.

They urged the senator not to allow personal ambition to override the collective interest of Kwara North, emphasizing that political decisions taken today would shape his legacy in the future.

The aspirants equally called on the leadership of the APC and the Governor of Kwara State, , to intervene in preserving the peaceful political atmosphere in Kwara North by upholding the existing zoning agreement.

They also reaffirmed their support for the re-election of President and expressed commitment to the aspiration of producing a Kwara North governorship candidate in the state.
