    Kwara Governor Faces Backlash Over Alleged ₦400m Retirement Home Amid Worsening Insecurity

    AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq have sparked outrage, as sources claim he is building a luxury retirement home worth over ₦400 million in Ilorin while insecurity continues to displace thousands across the state.

    According to multiple insider reports, Governor AbdulRazaq recently purchased a property from Chief Olusola Adekanola, a well-known chartered accountant, on AbdulRazaq Road—one of the most politically significant areas in Ilorin. The property, situated behind a banquet hall and opposite the home of the governor’s brother, was demolished to make way for the governor’s new private residence.

    A Political Power Zone

    AbdulRazaq Road has long been home to Kwara’s political elite, including former Senate President Bukola Saraki, Senator Saliu Mustapha, Senator Smart Adeyemi, businessman Moshood Mustapha, and industrialist Kamarudeen Kamwire. The governor has reportedly invested heavily in reconstructing the roads and infrastructure in and around this neighborhood, raising concerns that state funds may be serving his personal interests.

    “Governor AbdulRazaq has strategically rebuilt all the roads in the area where he is now constructing his retirement home,” one government source revealed.

    Private Projects Tied to Close Associates

    The construction of the governor’s residence is said to be overseen by Araba Oluwafemi Sanni, a civil engineer, media owner, and ally of the governor. Sanni, who also supervises government projects such as the new Kwara State Secretariat and the entrance gate to Government House, has been described by insiders as the governor’s “frontman” for managing private investments discreetly.

    While these personal projects are underway, insecurity across Kwara has reached alarming levels. Residents in Kwara North and South report daily kidnappings and attacks by armed bandits. Communities like Sagbe, Ologomo, Alabe, and Babanla in Ifelodun Local Government Area have been hardest hit, forcing families to abandon their homes in fear.

    On August 17, 2025, videos surfaced showing distressed residents, including a man identified as Ganiyu Babatunde, pleading for urgent government intervention. Witnesses described how families, including women and children, were seen stranded at Oke-Ode garage with their belongings, searching for vehicles to take them to safer areas.

    “Despite the growing insecurity, the governor seems more focused on building multimillion-naira private houses instead of addressing the crisis displacing his citizens,” one source alleged.

    A State on Edge

    Local communities fear that if the displacement continues, ancestral lands could be lost to strangers, erasing generations of heritage.

    As of the time of this report, attempts to obtain an official government response have been unsuccessful.
