Fayemi’s victory a demonstration of faith in APC – Ajimobi

Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State has described the victory of Dr.
Kayode Fayemi in the just-concluded gubernatorial election in Ekiti
State as a demonstration of the people's trust in the ruling All
Progressives Congress (APC).

Ajimobi made this disclosure in a congratulatory message issued by his
Special Adviser on Communication and Strategy, Mr. Bolaji Tunji in
Ibadan.

The Governor said that Fayemi's victory had shown that APC as a party
had the capacity to liberate the state from mis-governance and gross
under-development.

He said that the outcome of the election, which he described as free,
fair and credible, was a reflection of the wishes and aspirations of
the people of the state and a further demonstration of their faith
that Fayemi's second coming as governor would bring the socio-economic
development which the state had been yearning for.

While congratulating the governor-elect for engaging in intellectual
and issue-based electioneering in all parts of the state, Ajimobi
described his victory at the polls as well-deserved.

Ajimobi said, "Please accept my hearty felicitations, my brother, Dr.
Kayode Fayemi, on your outstanding performance at the just-concluded
gubernatorial election which you won fair and square.

"It was indeed a well-deserved victory and a reflection of the trust
and confidence which the people of Ekiti State have in our great
party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) as a party which has the
capacity to liberate the state from the shackles of mis-governance and
gross under-development.

"I am equally happy that the issue-based electioneering which you took
to all the nooks and crannies of Ekiti State, coupled with the active
support of the party hierarchy at the national level and in all the
APC-controlled states, eventually paid off with your victory at the
polls.

"I have no doubt that with your intellectual disposition, sagacity in
public administration and as a tested hand, you will use your wealth
of experience to turn things around for Ekiti and take the state to
greater heights".

Ajimobi also congratulated the people of the state for making the
right choice by voting Fayemi and APC, and, by extension, returning
the state to the mainstream, assuring them that the governor-elect and
the party would not disappoint them.

He equally commended the electoral umpire for conducting a free, fair
and hitch- free election, which had shown their level of preparedness
and readiness for the 2019 elections.
