All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti state has vowed to give Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) a run for it money come 2018 election.
This is coming from the former speaker of the Ekiti State House of Assembly and chieftain of APC Femi Bamisile, he said that the party is poised to reclaim the state from the PDP, The Punch reports.
He said that the loss of the state to Governor Ayodele Fayose in the 2014 governorship election under Kayode Fayemi’s administration is a temporary setback adding that the party would bounce back .
Bamisile made this remark at a stakeholders meeting on Friday July 10 that had in attendance party faithful drawn from the 16 local government area. He disclosed during the meeting of his intention to run for the governorship election comes 2018.
He said:“I am very certain that APC will take over Ekiti in 2018. But we have to start the process of rebuilding the party and that is exactly what we are doing. I have developed a team across the 16 Council Areas. We are working underground and we will ensure that everybody is brought on board.
“Though, Fayemi’s loss brought a little setback, but if you go round you will realise that APC is still a party to beat in Ekiti. All we need to do is to reconcile all divided interests and sensitise our people.”
The ex-speaker who defected to the APC last year told party member to work with whoever President Muhammadu picked as minister from the state as the leader of the party in the state.
Bamisile urged them to work hard for party victory comes 2018 by reaching out to “commercial drivers and motorcyclists, teachers, civil servants, artisans, market men and women and other critical stakeholders to make the dream of recapturing the State a reality.”
He lauded Buhari for the N2.1 billion released to Ekiti as part of bailout to states.
“President Buhari has given Ekiti a lifeline. He has rescued our people out of poverty and Fayose must pay our workers. He must not divert the money.
“The APC as an opposition party is monitoring the situation closely. Fayose will give account of how he spent the N2.1 billion. He will also explain to EFCC how he spent the N22 billion released by FG on Federal roads constructed by Fayemi, because his immunity will go very soon,”he added.
Bamisile predicted that leadership tussle rocking the National Assembly would soon be over.
“We will always fight because such is normal in politics. But while fighting, we must always display extreme loyalty to our party. That is what I believe in .
“The best way we can show this is by believing in any reconciliation efforts put in place in resolving crisis. I quite believe that we shall come out stronger,”he asserted.
