Members of the Kwara South Unity Forum, in Kwara State have commenced the recall process of the senator representing the Kwara South Senatorial District, Rafiu Ibrahim, for kneeling before the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki.
A copy of the petition it sent to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, was made available to journalists in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital, on Sunday.
The letter, dated November 13, was also sent to the office of the Senate President.
It was received and acknowledged at INEC on November 14 and the office of the President of the Senate on November 17.
The President of the group, 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 said issues critical to the growth and development of Kwara South, were allegedly being openly disregarded and dismissed by the senator.
Adegboroye further alleged that Ibrahim was abusing their democratic rights and intelligence and was not sufficiently addressing human capital development in the area.
He stated, “A situation whereby, a man we voted for, now comes out openly and with audacity, to state that he needs to consult ‘his boss’, who isn’t even from Kwara South, is nothing but a violation of our human and democratic rights.”
