"We cannot afford to fail the people," Governor elect ascertains the people in the State.

Kwara State Governor elect, A. Abdulrasaq, of the All Progressive Congress, APC, has ascertained the people of the State that his administration can afford to let their people down.

He said "You have overwhelmingly decided and that has put a lot of responsibilities on us. We cannot afford to fail and we cannot afford to steal and loot the treasury.

"God forbid that after three years, people will regret voting this new government.

"I can assure you that will not happen. We will work tirelessly as a team to deliver and make sure people start feeling the effects of government and dividends of democracy.

"The Offa robbery where 33 people were killed, based on police investigation was linked to top government officials. We will also interface with the Police to ensure that the judicial process is logically concluded and perpetrators are brought to book.

"We will set up a transition committee that will interface with the government and we will have a forensic audit of the paying system to formulate new policies.

"We will organise Health Care Summit, Education Summit and special Summit on how to improve the state infrastructure.

"And lastly, I want to assure our traditional leaders in the state that, contrary to the news making the round, I will not demote any traditional ruler but will work with them and count on their useful advice."
