Confusion in Ekiti PDP as parallel excos emerge
The parallel executives emerged from the State Congress held at two different locations with each faction announcing new executive officers.Senator Biodun Olujimi-led faction which enjoys the support of elders caucus of the party held their congress at Lotus Hotel in Ado Ekiti, while the camp loyal to former governor Ayodele Fayose held theirs at Petim Guest House in the state capital.
The major highlights of the congress which political observers described as surprise was the sudden ‘dramatic and unholy alliance’ between ex-governor Segun Oni and Fayose to battle Olujimi. He emphasized that loyalty remains the best ingredient the party members as opposition must exhibit to be able to triumph over the Governor Kayode Fayemi-led APC, saying “Ekiti people have serious resentment for the ruling party.”Fayose warned the party faithful against indiscipline and disloyalty that are common features among politicians.
On his new found harmony with Oni, Fayose stated: “I welcome Engr Oni to Ekiti PDP . I knew APC will fail him when he left . I congratulate him for becoming born again today. Whoever comes back, you are welcome.
