Kwara Govt Demolishes Library Named After Saraki’s Family

 

The Kwara state government has demolished a library named in honour of Olusola Saraki, a second republic politician and father of Bukola Saraki, former senate president.

 

it was gathered that plans to demolish the library, located along Agbooba-Adeta road in Ilorin, the state capital, was said to have started last Friday when security agents were deployed to the area.
It is not immediately clear why the building was demolished, as Rafiu Ajakaye, chief press secretary to Abdurahman Abdulrazaq, governor of the state, did not respond to a text message seeking his reaction.
The former senate president has commented on the development on his Facebook page.

According to him, “I just got the news that the major official assignment carried out by the Governor of my state, Kwara, today, is the demolition of an old public library named after my late dad, Dr. Olusola Saraki. May Almighty Allah continue to retain a place for Oloye in Aljannah Firdaus”.
