The Campaign Council of Hon. Yusuf Eletu Saka has expressed serious concern over the destruction of approximately 20 campaign billboards belonging to its principal across Ilorin East and Ilorin South Local Government Areas of Kwara State.
This development was confirmed in a statement made available to 9japarrot, signed by the Eletu Media and Communications department.
According to the statement, the affected locations include Tanke Junction, Flower Garden, Edun-Opo Malu Junction, Unity Road and Gaa Akanbi, among other areas.
Reacting to the incident, the Director-General of the Campaign Council, Alh. Adamu Oloyin, expressed deep disappointment and described the development as disheartening, particularly at a time when political communication and campaign activities have increasingly embraced modern technology and digital platforms.
He noted that it was unfortunate to witness the destruction of campaign materials in an era when democratic engagement should be driven by ideas, constructive conversations and healthy political competition rather than acts of vandalism.
The Campaign Council considers the incident unacceptable and calls on relevant security agencies to investigate the matter and ensure that anyone found responsible is held accountable in accordance with the law.
The Council also urges supporters and members of the campaign organisation to remain calm and law-abiding. Its commitment remains to peaceful political engagement, constructive communication and presenting Hon. Yusuf Eletu Saka’s vision to the people of Ilorin East and Ilorin South.
