In what appears to be a tactical reply to the agitations of some politicians in Ekiti State asking that power shifts to the Southern Senatorial District
in 2022, former Governor Segun Oni, has opposed the advocacy, saying it would be a great disservice to the opposition party.
In recent times, politicians of southern extraction, including former Ekiti Deputy Governor, Prof Kolapo Olusola, had vehemently insisted that the PDP should zone its governorship ticket to the South which has not produced the governor since 1999. “Let me say this clearly, only a ruling party can zone governorship. But if you are in opposition, you should only think of who can take power. Let me thank Mr Ayodele Fayose, he had the luxury as a governor and he went for it, though we lost in 2018.
“Ekiti voters are ready for us, I mean ready to vote for us. No party can be lucky more than this. Our road to the government house is almost clear, people have been saying that to us. Though we have internal crises but we will resolve our differences, because we don’t want to play second fiddle again”.
