2027 elections: Group to strengthen ties with Kwara residents
A political group in Kwara State, the Kwara Redemption Movement KRM, has pledged to build a strong bond with the people of the state ahead of the 2027 general elections, emphasizing a new culture of leadership rooted in service and integrity.
Speaking on Thursday in Ilorin during the inauguration of KRM’s local chapters, the group’s coordinator, Iyiola Oyedepo, said the movement is committed to grassroots engagement and value-driven leadership.
Oyedepo said,” While others lord it over the people, KRM subscribes to servanthood in leadership. Others may see leadership as showmanship of fleets of glittering cars, using public money to deck themselves in expensive pieces of jewellery or even engrossed in other conspicuous consumption lifestyle.”
He said the group would strive to create a culture of leading people with fairness, compassion, and fidelity and create a new culture that is beneficial to the people of the state.

“The people of Kwara must know that we are not only different from others, we are ready and serious to always make a difference. With what we are doing here today, we are creating workers for the KRM. When we go to the ward or pooling booths level, we are taking our messages to the grassroots.
” All members of KRM are party workers. The people inaugurated today have today been given their own assignments which will make them earn their places in the history of this state, especially if they act well their parts. Those that are not part of the people inaugurated today shall have their roles cut out for them other available committees,” he said.
Other speakers at the event include a former member of the House of Representatives, Moshood Mustapha, former public relations officer of the All Progressives Congress (APC)in the state, Aro Yahaya and Hon Aliyu Lade.
All the speakers urged the people of the state to take their fate into their own hands.
