Ekiti Governor-elect, Mr. Ayo Fayose, has
promised to chase the All Progressives
Congress out of the South West.Fayose,
who spoke after receiving his Certificate
of Return at the Independent National
Electoral Commission’s office in Ado

Ekiti on Thursday, said he would use his
position as the new leader of the
Peoples Democratic Party in the South
West to achieve this aim.
He received the certificate alongside his
deputy, Dr. Kolapo Eleka, amid cheers
from his supporters, who thronged the
INEC office.“God has today, by this
certificate, turned me to a leader in the
South West. I will go from here to begin
to energise our people from one state to
another until we take back our
inheritance,” he said.
Fayose said he had no time to reply
anyone who abused him in office as he
was after people’s interest only and
would avoid distractions.
“When you are running a race of life, you
don’t look right or left. You must go for
the goal and attain it. I am going for the
goal like Awolowo. My target is the
common people while I will respect the
elite,” he said.
Fayose said his election would be only
for politicians and not technocrats. He
said, “There are many technocrats in the
PDP, I won’t bring any technocrat from
anywhere. If you are a technocrat, come
back and do politics with us; suffer like
we suffer, when we don’t sleep, you
don’t sleep. Don’t go and stay
somewhere and say because you are a
doctor, you are a professor, we should
come and give the post of politicians to
you.
My government will be 100 per cent
local politicians. We have enough
graduates, doctors, professors and if we
don’t have enough, we will use some
primary school leavers to augment it.
There will be no commissioner from
another place other than the party.”
Fayose said he would not change the
way he related with the people as he
would continue to eat roasted plantain
and groundnut, and drink herbal
mixture with them.
Fayose warned Governor Kayode Fayemi
against creating more local governments
or employing people towards the end of
his tenure.
