Ekiti PDP Lawmaker Defects To APC by Fraudophobia: 6:34pm On Jan 31, 2019
JANUARY 31, 2019

Mr Olarewaju Olayanju, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) representing Emure Constituency in Ekiti State House of Assembly, has defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He described PDP in Ekiti as a party which had reached its “dead end”, saying he could not continue to be in a party which was divided against itself.

Olayanju announced his defection at a news conference at the Assembly on Thursday. “I have reflected deeply on the current situation and I have informed my constituents that my interest and their interests can no longer be achieved in the PDP. “PDP in Ekiti is now in disarray.

No leader to rally the members together; the leaders have destroyed the party through naked use of powers. “The party is factionalised in Ekiti with leadership calling on the people to vote for opposing political parties; the party has reached the dead end.

“As a man of integrity, I can not stay and work against the party, therefore, I am willingly defecting to APC,”Olayanju said. He said before now APC had not won in Emure in Emure Local Government area in long time, but as from now, he assured APC of landmark victory in the forthcoming elections. The Speaker, Ekiti State House of Assembly, Mr Adeniran Alagbada, congratulated the new defector for defecting to the “Next Level of Progress”.

He said that although there were just four APC members in the Assembly, but he was optimistic that in the coming weeks more PDP members would defect to APC. The speaker called on Ekiti people to vote en-masse for the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari on Feb. 16 and other APC candidates.

The honorable member captured the situation of Ekiti PDP succinctly. The party is as good as dead. Fayose started the destruction of the party while Olujimi’s impatience to become the party leader and push out Fayose finally buried the party. Atiku May not get up to 100k votes in the state.

wrong Olujimi might have saved PDP in the State but the obstinacy of Fayose and stupidity of Eleka is the albatross of pdp in Ekiti, the directive of Fayose to PDP supporters to vote against Olujimi at the polls is one that proves that Fayose is in cahoots with the APC govt to the detriment of PDP

presidential election is different. If you interview 1 out 10 in Ekiti who they prefer to be president, 7 will tell you is Atiku. Majority of Nigerians are tired of Buhari.

Fayose is still more popular and influential than her. He singlehandedly imposed all the assembly and house of reps candidates. She should have waited till after the election before attempting to hijack the party structure from him. APC is stronger than ever before in the state and an already depleted PDP is now factionalized. She will lose her senate seat while most of Fayose’s candidstes will lose as well. It’s a lose - lose for both of them.

Re: Ekiti PDP Lawmaker Defects To APC by HimName: 8:44am On Feb 01, 2019
My Blothers (IPOB) from the Yeast Infested region have "taken care" of Fayose to oblivion.

He's been relegated even beyond a political neophyte.

They wail on your behalf, you are doomed.

The fight for you, you are a goner.

Atiku is the next in line to go down. It's only another pointer that Muhammadu is returning to Aso Rock.

The moment dem change channel begin support Buhari, na Daura sure pass for the lanky man.
