Ibrahim had already started his campaign across the nooks and crannies of Kwara South Senatorial District.
It could be recalled that when the ticket was taken from Governor Ahmed as a result of the outcome of a bye-election in Kwara South, in which the All Progressives Congress defeated the PDP, it was handed over to Ibrahim.
Following the development, Ibrahim published a full page advert to appreciate the leadership for the party in the state, headed by the President of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki.
