Kwara State Commissioner for Education, Sa’adatu Kawu, has resigned from the position to contest for the House of Representatives seat in the 2023 general elections.
Gatekeepers News reports that Kawu announced her resignation from the state executive council at a media briefing in Ilorin, the State capital.
She would contest for the House of Representatives seat in the Ilorin East/South Federal Constituency on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to the commissioner, she took the decision in the interest of her people.
“I have literally resigned my appointment voluntarily in the quest to further add value to my community and people.
“I have decided to contest in the next general elections as a patriot to represent the good people of Ilorin East/South Federal constituency as a member of the House of Representatives,” she said.
Kawu thanked Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq for giving her the opportunity to serve in his government.
Gatekeepers News reports that the state government had last week directed all political appointees seeking elective positions in the 2023 general elections to resign from their jobs latest by April 15.
