Fayemi Picks Adebisi Adegboyega Egbeyemi As Running Mate by Ekiti360(m): 9:00am On May 31, 2018
​The All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for the July 14 polls in Ekiti State, John Kayode Fayemi, has picked former Executive Chairman of Ado-Ekiti Local Government, Chief Adebisi Adegboyega Egbeyemi, as his running mate.

A statement from JKF Campaign office in Ado-Ekiti disclosed that 74-year-old Egbeyemi was picked in the late hours of Wednesday, after party leaders met for long hours.

The statement, which was signed by Wole Olujobi said Egbeyemi’s choice came after speculations by the expectant public spread that certain eminent indigenes of the state had been picked to fly the ticket with Fayemi in the July 14, 2018 governorship poll.

Egbeyemi, an indigene of Ado-Ekiti, was born on May 8, 1944 to the family of the late Egbeyemi Alade and late Madam Tinubu Egbeyemi.

He started his education at the Holy Trinity Anglican School, Ilawe-Ekiti and Baptist School, Ado-Ekiti, after which he attended Harding Memorial Modern School, Ado-Ekiti.

He studied privately while working as a Laboratory Assistant at Ekitiparapo College, Ido-Ekiti, and while working as a bursar at Notre Dame Grammar School, Usi-Ekiti, Egbeyemi sat as a private student to pass both the GCE O’Level and Advanced Level examinations.

He later proceeded to the University of Lagos College of Education where he graduated in Biology and Physical Education with distinction. He taught briefly at the St Mary’s Girls Secondary School, Ikole-Ekiti, in 1975 before he was transferred to the Teachers’ College, Oye-Ekiti, as a pioneer Physical Education tutor between 1975 and 1977.

He later went to the University of Ife to read Law between 1977 and 1980 before proceeding to the Law School in Lagos for his Barrister at Law certificate and was called to the Nigerian Bar in 1981 as a Solicitor and Advocate of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.

His political experiences spanned many fields, including the Youth Leader of the Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN) between 1979 and 1983; a member of the Ondo State House of Assembly in 1983; and Executive Chairman of Ado-Ekiti Local Government between 1991 and 1993.

Others include Leader of the United Nigeria Congress Party (UNCP) in Ado-Ekiti Local Government between 1996 and 1997 and was founding member of the Alliance for Democracy (AD), using the platform to win the House of Representatives election that was cancelled by the late Head of State, General Sani Abacha, in 1998.

Between 1991 and 1992, he was Commissioner of Education and between 2001 and 2002, Egbeyemi was a member of the Governing Council of the National Teachers’ Institute, Kaduna.

A receiver of many awards, the lawyer was appointed the Commissioner for Justice and Attorney General between 2002 and 2003.

He was a founding member and Leader of the Action Congress in Ado-Ekiti Local Government and currently a foremost leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State.

A top chieftaincy title holder in Ado-Ekiti, Egbeyemi is married with children.

Why am I not surprised?
This is the party that gave us 75yr old Buhari
The party that appoints dead people as heads of govt agencies.
The party that called us lazy youths.
The party that has a 65yr old man as youth leader.
Why am I not surprised?

Advanced chess moves by master politicians.

This choice is the most dangerous weapon against PDP and may have guaranteed Fayemi's victory next elections.

I think it's a political calculation. This could be why the Adeleye of a guy moved to APC. Fayemi will go for just 4 years. He must have promised Adeleye the next Ekiti APC gubernatorial ticket

Because you and I aren't proactive enough. All we know how to do on Nairaland and other social media platform is to abuse ourselves and dwell on tribalistic and religious fights. If its not IPod, or ipob, it will be Ijaw youths, or Fulani this , or Afonja that.
That's why a retired military dictator can look at us and call us lazy youth.
