The Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, on Wednesday night mocked the opposition over what he termed their incessant replacement of Commissioners of Police in Kwara State.
Saraki gave the reasons when he addressed a mammoth crowd of his supporters during the Peoples Democratic Party rally at Balogun Fulani Ward in Ilorin South Local Government Area of the state.
He said: “They (the opposition) are scared to come and meet our people that is why they are busy changing police commissioner every day, but that won’t change our people’s resolve to continue to support us.
“The support we receive shows that we are on ground with the people and they are still fully supporting us.
“Let other parties come and meet our people and see if people will receive them the way they receive us.
“We are always with the people unlike them who are usually home during elections to deceive our people.
“If the APC (All Progressives Congress) is popular as they claim let them come home and show their strength just like we did.
“They cannot intimidate our people with police.”
As Akanbi Wards 1, 2 and 3, over 2,000 members of the APC decamped to the PDP.
The youths under the aegis of PMB Ambassadors publicly burnt over 2,000 brooms, while they embraced the Umbrella, the official logo of the PDP.
