All Progressives Congress (APC) youth in the Ekiti local government area of Kwara state have described projects by administration of Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq in the area as people-oriented, saying their choice of voting APC has yielded positive results.

"The Ekiti Bloc, Ekiti Kwara, has never experienced such monumental development like this in any of the past administrations in Kwara state.
