The governor of Ekiti state , Ayodele
Fayose on Monday said his support for
the re-election of President Goodluck
Jonathan was in appreciation for the
opportunity given him to serve the
people of Ekiti state .
Fayose, who made this known during
his campaign tour to Ikole in Ekiti, said
it would be wrong on his part if he did
not support the re- election of President
Goodluck Jonathan .
According to the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN ) , Fayose said: “ I was
removed as Ekiti state governor in 2006
by one President but re- elected as
governor in 2014 under another
President and I will forever be grateful
to the latter.
“ The overwhelming support I have been
receiving from the people of Ekiti since
my assumption of office has clearly
shown that I was wrongly removed in
2006 .
“ You should show the support during
the February elections by voting for the
re- election of President Jonathan and
other candidates under the umbrella of
the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) .”
The governor reiterated his commitment
to the welfare of Ekiti people and
pledged to always do what would
alleviate poverty and improve their
living standards .
Highlight of the occasion was the
presentation of PDP flags to the party
candidates for House of Assembly,
House of Representative and the Senate
seats from the area .
The candidates are Mr. Gboyega
Aribisogan - Ikole State Constituency 1 ,
Mrs. Titilayo Owolabi -Ikole 11, Pastor
Kehinde Agboola - Ikole Federal
Constituency 1 and Chief Duro Faseyi-
