Ex-Senate President, Bukola Saraki has blasted Kwara State Government for taking over a piece of land owned by the Sarakis in Ilorin, the state capital. According to chief press secretary to the state governor, Rafiu Ajakaiye, the land was originally meant for government secretariat and it was unlawfully allocated to one of Sarakiβs late fatherβs private firms with no record of payment to Kwara State. However, Bukola Saraki has said it is just the state governor, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaqβs way of waging war against him and his father. His words, βIt should be noted that the excuse given by Abdulrazaq in his revocation order holds no water since it is clear that this is the height of his vengeance against my father, Dr. Abubakar Olusola Saraki and I.β βThis action is clearly a manifestation of vengeance β¦ in his narrow-mindedness, he believes his victory at the polls is an empowerment, entitlement and enablement to settle scores, provoke and pursue inter-family rivalry. They expected development and fulfilment of promises.β βSeven months down the line, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq has shown that its cardinal Programme is to wage war against my late father and I. He has demonstrated that his only competence and astuteness is in the area of viciously assailing the late Oloye Saraki and I. Definitely, he is a man with no sense of history. Enough is enough. Now, he has crossed the line,β βPerhaps, I should let it be known that if Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq thinks he is taking all these actions to get at me, he is only deceiving himself. There is no basis for competition between us. Our paths cannot cross because the status that he is struggling to attain, Almighty Allah has given it to me many years before now.β βWith all his subterranean and open moves against my family, person and property, I remain unmoved. βHowever, his open antagonism against my late father and his legacies is unwarranted and will not be tolerated. He has definitely gone beyond bounds as he cannot be allowed to ride roughshod on the deceased. In this war against my late father, he will not win.β
