Fayose Campaigns for Adetunmbi in Ikole

Former Ekiti-State Governor, Ayo Fayose has declared that the Action
Congress (AC) candidate Olubunmi Adetunmbi will win Saturday’s rerun
election in Ekiti North Senatorial district, urging the people to
resist the alleged concluded rigging plan of the PDP and INEC.


Fayose who  made the declaration at Ikole local government during the
campaign of the AC for its candidate,  Adetunmbi disclosed that the
duo of both Governor Segun Oni and the PDP candidate, Ayo Arise were
not ready for the rerun adding that they are only relying on rigging.

“Both Arise and Oni have left Ekiti for the past three days now to
Abuja  when the election is Saturday they have gone to Abuja only to
beg the INEC to help them rig the rerun for Arise the way they rigged
Ido/Osi election for Oni in the last rerun” Fayose said.

“ But they will expose themselves to ridicule more this time around
even more than before because  Ido/ Osi saga exposed the PDP and
INEC`s anti-democratic nature and that is why I cannot identify with
the party that rig election, I can no longer identify with the party
that carries ballot boxes and the party that carries gun, matches and
other dangerous weapon to rob of their mandates”

“Though I have said it times without number that I am not an AC person
but I am for the truth and I am with and in support of the common man
and wherever the masses says they are going is where I am going too”
“Some people said I did not go back to farm because Oni is sworn in as
Governor after the rerun, yes I cannot go back to farm because the AC
won in the rerun and it was clear to everyone what Adebayo Ayoka and
the INEC did during the last rerun.  So the AC has the victory and not
Oni. Everyone knows how INEC rigged the election for Oni and I am
happy because the overwhelming evidence the AC has against the PDP
this time around is even more than first one

“So let all of us go and prepare for them because we know that they
are going to rig again but we will not allow them and I also want to
implore you all not to fight or make trouble with them on the day of
election but we should not allow them to carry our ballot boxes or rig
our election”.

“I know that Arise with all his (Ifunpa, Olode, Aluwo, guns and
matchets) that he relied upon cannot win the rerun because many things
will work against him and part of them are lack of good manners, his
pride will work against him and the fact that throughout the time he
was there as Senator, he has no achievement, except buying beer, and
distributing cutlass and juju for the youths. It was when the court
sacked him that he now started running helter-skelter, trying to build
one small clinic, very shameful.”

“One thing I know for sure is that, no reasonable Oye son or daughter
will want to vote for him, and I Know that Original sons of Ifaki will
prefer to vote for Adetunbi to have a Senator than to lose it to Arise
more so when they know that Oni will soon go”

“I want the people to remember that when I was the governor I promised
to construct a better road for them which I fulfilled immediately and
the road is now the best road in Ekiti today. So I want to appeal to
the people of Ikole local government to pay me back now in kind by
voting for Adetunmbi and ensure that he wins the Saturday re-run”
Fayose stated.

In his own speech, Adetunmbi described Arise as a man with golden
opportunity but misused it and messed by neglecting the people after
achieving his, adding that it now time to rip the sour seeds he had
laid as his nullification of his election has become a thing of joy
for both young and old in Ekiti because of the way he behaved when he
was in Abuja.

Adetunmbi however promised to strive for better tomorrow of the youths
in the area even as he promised to ensure that some of them are
assisted to buy their own cars by the time he is elected as senator
representing them in Abuja.

The campaign team visited Irele, Oke Ako, and Ipao in Ikole local
government where they were giving rosy welcome Among other dignitaries
at the rally included a PDP Chieftain, Deji Adesua, President
Ekitiparapo in USA, Mr Segun Ajibulu, Jide Awe, Ronke Okunsaya, Akin
Olayisade, Senator Bode Ola, and Diran Adesua.
