EKITI GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION IS BATTLE ROYALE BETWEEN KAYODE FAYEMI VS OPEYEMI BAMIDELE VS AYO FAYOSE

DR. KAYODE FAYEMI- APC

HON. OPEYEMI BAMIDELE- LABOUR PARTY

AYO FAYOSE-PDP

 All things being equal the 3 major personality vying to take charge as the next Governor of Ekiti State come 2015 till 2019 are the trio of the incumbent Dr. Kayode Fayemi, the very hardworking Governor now, who in our opinion totally deserves a 2nd time to consolidate on the achievements of the last 4 years, his main opponent is his former friend and former ACN party faithful, Honourable Opeyemi Bamidele, who is now the flag-bearer of the Labour Party,  in fact, he was the only candidate that vied from his party and the last but not the least in the race, is the former Governor of the state, who was later impeached in the person of Mr. Ayo Fayose aka stainless, who won the primaries of his party the PDP earlier on today, Saturday, March 22, 2014.

Ayo Fayose won by a very large margin at the PDP primaries polling 462 votes out of a total of 477 votes cast to Caleb Olubolade's 7 votes, Adedayo Adeyeye 3 votes and Margaret Ogundipe 1 vote. With the result of this Primaries except something extraordinary happens now, Ayo Fayose would most likely be the flag-bearer of PDP at the next election. 

The 3 that have emerged representing ACN, Labour & PDP are as big as they come and none of them can be ignored at all, anyone who ignores the other, does so at their own peril. So now that they have emerged, the battle royale would most definitely begin in earnest. 

Electioneering is sure to start right way, with each candidate doing their best to win more of the electorates to their sides. One just hopes and prays that there wouldn't violence and blood shed. Though it looks like a straight battle between Kayode Fayemi & Opeyemi Bamidele, Ayo Fayose is no pushover at all and can spring surprises that can affect the two main contenders.

So who do you guys support to win? Kayode Fayemi? Opeyemi Bamidele? or Ayo Fayose?

A DIVIDED HOUSE PLAYING OUT IN EKITI STATE. KAYODE FAYEMI VS OPEYEMI BAMIDELE

GOVERNOR KAYODE FAYEMI

HON. OPEYEMI BAMIDELE

It seems like a drama of the absurd kind is gradually playing itself out in Ekiti State. And if the situation is not nipped in the bud, it might not augur very well for the ruling party ACN in the state. From all indications it is what the opposition wants and they are quietly praying there's no resolution. They must be laughing their heads off right now.

The battle royale quietly playing out is between the incumbent action Governor, who truly has transformed governance in his state Ekiti, he has brought his intellectual capacity to fore in Ekiti in all areas, making sure to touch every area of his State. This seems to have endeared him to his people and even his party seem mesmerized by his work rate and all he has done, so there is the clamour for him to consolidate and go for a second term. On the other side of this battle royale, is a former Commissioner for Information in Lagos State, now a Honourable member of the House of Representatives, in the person of Hon. Opeyemi Bamidele: Who is a strong ACN party stalwart in Ekiti state. He is also said to have the ambition to become the next Governor of Ekiti State. His clamour to rule Ekiti we hear is based on an agreement that the incumbent would run for one term only and then make way.
