The All Progressives Congress (APC) faction of the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said it has secured nomination forms for all its aspirants in Kwara State.
The APC is holding its nationwide local government and ward congresses on Saturday.
Speaking with journalists in Ilorin during a press conference, the caretaker legal adviser of the party in the state, Barrister Ladi Mustapha, said the Bashir Omolaja Bolarinwa-led faction is prepared for the Congresses slated for Saturday provided every other thing remains constant.

“I am delighted to inform you that we have secured nomination forms for all prospective contestants into positions at the Wards and Local Governments in compliance with the set guidelines for the exercise,” Barrister Mustapha told newsmen.
He added that the Bashir Bolarinwa Omolaja-led executive of the party had notified relevant agencies as required by the Electoral Act, 2006 (As Amended).
On their position regarding the Mai Mala Buni-led national leadership, Mustapha said the “Yobe State Governor cannot be absolved of the crisis rocking the party in Kwara State.
“They have tried all the tricks in the book to pervert the cause of justice on issues, but our God is a God of justice.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the Supreme Court ruling on Jegede Vs. Rotimi Akeredolu Governorship election should be bold enough on the wall of justice that Hon. Bashir Ọmọlaja Bolarinwa’s chairmanship is as solid, in law, as the Rock of Gibraltar,” he said.
