The All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for the July 14 election in Ekiti State, Dr Kayode Fayemi, on Tuesday relived how he and other top notches of the party escaped death during last Friday’s rally organised in his honour when a policeman went berserk and shot Hon. Opeyemi Bamidele and five others. The former minister revealed that he alongside the Ondo State Governor, Mr. Olurotimi Akeredolu; ex-Minister of Works, Prince Dayo Adeyeye; and Bamidele would have been killed but for God’s intervention. Fayemi also promised that the July 14 election would be the end of Governor Ayodele Fayose’s political reign in Ekiti, exuding confidence that the party will work hard across the 177 wards to ensure that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is uprooted in the state. He described Adeyeye’s defection from the PDP to APC as a big boost for the party, saying his parting ways with Fayose would help the reclamation struggle against the present governor. Read more
