Members of the Kwara South Unity Forum in Kwara State have initiated a recall process against the senator representing the Kwara South Senatorial District, Dr. Rafiu Ibrahim.
The letter, dated November 13, was received and acknowledged at INEC on November 14 and the office of the President of the Senate on November 17.
The public notification of the recall process however did not come without a drama.
While the group was about addressing journalists at Ofa on the recall process, hoodlums and thugs stormed the venue and disrupted the media briefing.
The General Secretary of the Kwara South Unity Forum, Mr. Ahmed Akorede, alleged that the invaders also made away with some valuables, adding that members of the group had been receiving threat messages, for discharging their “human right and constitutional” responsibility.
The President of the group, Mr. John Adegboye, while addressing journalists during a media briefing at Ijagbo in the Oyun Local Government Area of Kwara State, alleged poor representation by Ibrahim.
He also accused Ibrahim of disregarding members and elders of the senatorial district while taking directives from external personalities.
He further alleged that issues, critical to the growth and development of Kwara South, were allegedly being openly disregarded and dismissed by the senator.
Adegboroye also accused Ibrahim of abusing their democratic rights and intelligence and was not sufficiently addressing human capital development in the area.
Adegboye said it was wrong for Ibrahim to kneel before the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki.
According to him, the Senate is a gathering of equals while the President of the Senate is simply the first among equals.
