Ekiti Election: We Will Not Take Ekiti Back To The Past – Tinubu
Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the National Leader of All Progressives Congress (APC), has described Ekiti is a state where change is necessary.
At the launch of the mega rally of APC’s governorship candidate, Kayode Fayemi, in Ado Ekiti on Tuesday, Tinubu said that Ekiti would join the progressives after the change.
“We will not take Ekiti back to the past. You all must use your Permanent Voters Card (PVC) to vote in APC.
“Your PVC is your red card. Use your PVC to give PDP a red card on July 14,’’ Tinubu advised the crowd.
Prince Dayo Adeyeye, former spokesman of PDP and former works minister formally defected from his party to APC.
Adeyeye, who was also a governorship aspirant of PDP, said: “PDP died in Ekiti since May 29.’’
“I have decamped from PDP and many others would soon join the APC.’’
He said he was now committed to APC to ensure that Ekiti came up again in terms of development
Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, national Chairman of APC, received Adeyeye and other defecting PDP party chieftains.
He congratulated them and assured then that “we will be here to celebrate victory’’.
