KWARA: POLICY REFORMS & ACHIEVEMENTS UNDER ABDULRAZAQ'S ADMINISTRATION

THE BOOKPolicymakers, policy analysts, researchers and students in the field of public policy have shown interest in the development of Kwara State in the post O-to-ge Revolution Era. This interest is not unconnected with the high expectation of countless citizens who have hitherto believed that previous hegemony in the state which spans four decades was more or less continuity than progress. However, with the change of leadership baton, the above basicity placed Abdulrazaq¿s administration under the lens board of Kwara citizens and keen observers of its governmentality. The author having observed that most of the analysis and assessment only formed the crux of media discourse and street-side commentaries without proper documentation, decided to come up with this book to serve as a précis and blow-by-blow account of the policy reforms and achievements of the Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq¿s Administration. The book demonstrates that the administration has its shortfalls, however, a core set of good policies, such as; macroeconomic discipline, infrastructure and human resource development, merits replication in the civil service laid the foundation for Kwara reform successes.
