APC Ekiti Backs Fayemi Up for 2023 Presidential Election
The All Progressive Congress (APC) in Ekiti state has urged the state Governor, Kayode Fayemi to contest the 2023 Presidential election.
The ruling party said its members will drag the governor into the presidential race, if he refuses to willingly contest. According to them, Fayemi is capable to occupy the position considering his intimidating political profile.
The state Caretaker Chairman, Hon. Paul Omotosho, spoke in a program on Saturday, he noted that the time has come for the president to come from Ekiti, saying it would no longer play second fiddle in the southwest’s politics.
He stated that Governor Fayemi has paid his dues in the ruling party, APC, and Nigeria’s political firmament at large, thus deserve to be entrusted with the responsibility of leading Nigeria in 2023.
According to Omotosho; ”The time has come for the President to come from Ekiti. That is why we are pleading with you to support Governor Fayemi.
”Though Governor Fayemi has never said he wanted to contest, we will force him to plunge into the race, because of his competence, dedication and loyalty to APC”.
