Engr. Femi Sanni Araba has officially declared his intention to contest the Kwara State governorship, calling for a consultative and inclusive process in choosing the next leader of the state.
Araba, who spoke during his declaration, said stakeholders must remain sensitive to the yearnings of the people, stressing that Kwara’s future should be shaped by the collective voice of its citizens.
According to him, leadership must be anchored on competence, a proven track record, integrity, and inclusiveness as the foundation for sustainable development.
The APC stalwart said his decision followed wide consultations across the 3 senatorial districts of the state, positioning himself as a bridge-builder committed to unity and progress.
He outlined his priorities around youth empowerment, economic growth, and transforming Kwara into a conference and business hub.
“Kwara belongs to all of us — Kwara tiwa ni,” he said, pledging people-centred governance and accelerated development across the state.
