poll - ITREALMS
ITREALMS :
The Private Sector Unions and non-indigenous
ethnic groups in Ekiti State have hailed Governor
Kayode Fayemi for the peaceful conduct of the
presidential and National Assembly elections in the
State, reports ITREALMS .
The unions at a rally in Ado- Ekiti, the state capital,
on Monday said the peaceful atmosphere during the
election was not unconnected to the all-inclusive
government of Governor Kayode Fayemi which has
enabled all stakeholders to take ownership of the
electioneering process.
In a statement signed by the Secretary to the
Private Sector Union, Prince Aladeloye Oroya, the
Union commended Fayemi for his “selfless and
detribalized politics” which, according to the union,
has endeared the governor to Ekiti people.
Oroya said the victory of the APC in Ekiti State was
a product of Fayemi’s “unparalleled generosity and
sportsmanship as well as President Muhammadu
Buhari’s “personal integrity and public office
records”.
The State President of Ohaneze Ndigbo, Chief
Nathaniel Uzoma, said the rally was organized to
felicitate with Buhari on his victory; adding that the
outcome of the election amounted to an
endorsement of the people-oriented programmes of
the Buhari-led government.
“Your Excellency, we have come to congratulate you
on the victor of President Buhari. All of us cannot
go to Abuja but we know that you, as our very good
friend, can extend our goodwill message to the
president. It is good to allow the president continue
his good works”, he said.
The chairman of Hausa community in the State,
Badamosi Mahadi also commended the Governor
for creating a peaceful environment for the election
to hold in the State; noting that it is only in Ekiti
State that ballot snatching and violence were not
recorded during the polls.
Mahadi called on all Hausa people in the State to
come out en masse on Saturday and vote for all the
House of Assembly candidates of the All
Progressives Congress in the State.
Responding, Governor Fayemi thanked the unions
and non indigenous groups for rallying support for
him and the APC in the last election.
Fayemi who was represented by his Chief of Staff,
Hon. Biodun Omoleye said his government believes
in peace because development can only thrive in an
atmosphere of peace.
The governor said the hitch-free election in the State
was made possible by the cooperation and unity
demonstrated by all ethnic groups in the State.
He urged Ekiti people to vote en masse for the All
Progressives Congress House of Assembly
candidates on Saturday.
