Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Tuesday led a powerful team of governors, Secretary to the Federal Government (SGF), Boss Mustapha, and other top leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at a rally in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State yesterday to officially present Dr.  Kayode Fayemi, as the party's standard bearer in the July 14 governorship election in the state.

Osinbajo urged the people of Ekiti State to vote massively for the governorship candidate of the APC, Fayemi, in the July 14 election, describing him as the best man for the job.

This is coming as the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) described on Tuesday’s governorship mega rally held by APC in the state as a dramatic display of the failures embodied in the party.
Osinbajo advised Ekiti residents to join the league of progressive states of Osun, Ogun, Lagos, Oyo and Ondo of the Southwest region.

This was as the National Chairman of the party, Chief John Odigie Oyegun, and the National Leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu;  former Governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomhole,  as well as Chief Bisi Akande told the electorate to vote right on July 14, saying a vote for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) means continuation of poverty.

Osinbajo and other party leaders spoke in Ado Ekiti at Oluyemi Kayode stadium yesterday at the official presentation of the governorship flag to Fayemi for the July 14 election.
Governors from Zamfara State and Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum (NGF), Governor
Abdulazis Yari: Edo State Godwin Obaseki; Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola;
Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu; Kogi State, Yahaya Bello; Oyo State, Abiola
Ajimobi; Kwara State, Abdufatah Ahmed; Jigawa State, Alhaji Abubakar Badaru;
Plateau State, Simon Lalong, among other states governors attended the rally.

Also present were Ministers of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed;
Defence Minister, Mansur Dan Ali; Minister of State Mines and Steel Development, Abubakar Bawa Bwari, as well as Senator Olorunnibe Mamora.

Osinbajo and Oyegun jointly received PDP defectors, who were led by former Minister of Works, Prince Dayo Adeyeye, a serving lawmaker in Ekiti State House of Assembly, Hon Adeniran Alagbada, and former Special Adviser in Ekiti State, Mr. Bosun Osaloni, who decamped to APC.

Osinbajo described Fayemi as a man sent by God to deliver the state from poverty, saying the July 14 election affords the electorate the opportunity to change their destinies for good.
Fayemi, while addressing supporters, promised that all the programmes initiated by his administration but abrogated by the present government would be restored in the interest of the populace.
Meanwhile, the PDP in a statement said  speakers at the APC’s governorship rally did not disclose any significant plan which the party has for Ekiti State and her people, saying it an indication that it has nothing except falsehood to offer the people.

The party National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, said the poorly attended rally was centred on abusive tantrums against the person of Fayose rather than raising issues of development which Fayemi had always claimed to be his area of strength.

PDP urged the people of the state to rally the people’s party ahead of the July 14 governorship election, citing the huge development which the incumbent state Governor,  Fayose, has brought to bear across the entire state.
