You can't run a sql with variables in this way. I show you a example:

,----[  example  ]
| CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION loop (val varchar) returns text as $$
| declare
|         rec     RECORD;
|         sql     varchar;
| begin
|         sql := 'select * from foo where val = \'' || $1 || '\';';
|         raise notice 'sql %',sql;
|         for rec in execute sql loop
|                 RAISE NOTICE '--> RECORD  --> ';
|         end loop;
|         RAISE NOTICE 'Complete';
|         RETURN 'OK';
| end;
| $$
| LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE CALLED ON NULL INPUT SECURITY INVOKER;
`----


and a test:

test=# select * from foo;
 id | val
----+-----
  1 | a
  2 | b
  3 | c
(3 Zeilen)


test=# select * from loop('a');
HINWEIS:  sql select * from foo where val = 'a';
HINWEIS:  --> RECORD  -->
HINWEIS:  Complete
 loop
------
 OK
(1 Zeile)


The point is, you should create a string that contains your sql, and
this string can you execute.

Read the docu for more details:
