The Kwara State Governor, Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed, has signed four bills into law with a pledge to redouble efforts to improve the welfare of the people despite the downturn in the national economy.

The new laws are: A Law to Amend The Environmental Sanitation Law; A Law to Repeal the Kwara State Transport Corporation Act; A Law to Amend the Cooperative Societies Law; and A Law to Amend the Kwara State Debt Securities Issuance Law.

Speaking after signing the bills into law in Ilorin on Monday, Ahmed said he would continue to initiate and implement new initiatives aimed at ensuring good governance and making life better for all residents in the state.

Ahmed acknowledged the challenges confronting the state as a result of dwindling allocation from the federal government.

He assured that he will work harder to cushion the population from the impact of the economic downturn as much as possible.

Governor Ahmed enjoined the people to support his administration to rapidly develop the state, stressing that that all hands must be on deck to create a prosperous Kwara State for the benefit of all.

Ahmed said that while his administration has no intention to impose fresh taxes, all efforts would be made towards efficient revenue collection to raise funds for his administration’s people-oriented projects.
