Fayose "Enemy of Democracy!

Aggrieved members of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti State have called for cancellation of last Saturday’s Ward Congresses citing irregularities as reasons. The aggrieved members, who are mainly aspirants into state and federal positions, including former members of National Assemblies in the PDP, described what happened in Ekiti as a ‘one man show ‘ rather than a congress. Briefing newsmen on behalf of aggrieved members, former senator, Ayo Arise, alleged that elections did not hold in many areas in the state, stating that the results were not recognized by the national officers. He said of Governor Ayo Fayose: “He had already compiled the list of delegates in favour of my challenger, Hon Duro Faseyi. So, as I am talking to you, the chairmen of all the wards and local governments have been summoned to Ado Ekiti by the governor to sign the forged lists”. But Fayose has denied involvement in the act, saying exercise was peaceful and credible.
