Former Deputy Governor of Ekit State, Prof. Kolapo Olusola- Eleka has called on members of Ekiti Grassroots Movement, EGM, to look beyond his aspiration, adding that EGM is a good platform to promote other people whose visions are in tandem with the principle of the group.

He said this while addressing Executive members of the group yesterday in his home town, Ikere -Ekiti.

Eleka, who said the group was one of the virile movements which mobilised the grassroots for PDP during the 2018 governorship election, observed the had proved its consistency and determination beyond a reasonable doubt through its programmes since 2018.

"I want you to look beyond Eleka as a group and be focused on how to make the mission of the group come to reality. Turbulent times will surely come but if the foundation is solid, there shall be a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel".

He said the leadership of EGM should avoid distraction and be determined to enable it grow beyond an individual.

Calling on the group members not to be part of those who insult former governor, Dr. Ayodele Fayose, Eleka said he will eternally be grateful to him for giving him the opportunity to serve as his deputy.

"As a Professor of repute and arbiter of peace and unity, I want you to downplay anything that will rub the names of our leaders in the mud. Without mincing word, Fayose is the leader of PDP in Ekiti state, hence we should all give honour to whom it is due".

The University don said his governorship ambition was to add values to Ekiti state and people around him.

"By the special grace of God, I have attained the highest cadre in the academics, so other attainments will be to add values".

Reacting, the founding father of the group, Hon. Oluwole Olusola appreciated the former deputy governor for associating with the group.

"On behalf of the Executive members and our teeming supporters across the 16 LGs in Ekiti state, I thank you for your fatherly love and support the group has enjoyed in the time past", Oluwole said .

Present at the meeting were 16 LG Coordinators and State Executive members of the group.

This information is false. It is indirect primaries in Ondo state

Obaseki's moves since he was screened out shocked them. They were expecting his "chest on the ground" at Boudilion.

Congratulations to PDP

Anybody that criticises this government is seen as a threat or terrorist. This Buhari government is insensitive and intolerance

I wish him success

It is now obvious why south cannot get the required distribution and collection of PVCs. Only God can redeem Nigeria

In the treachery opinion of Senator Olujimi, the DG of Atiku/Obi Campaign in Ekiti should be Otunba Yinka Akerele, who contested the July 14, 2018 governorship election under DPN and got less than 300 votes.

We should have her Assembly members that suspended duly elected PDP council chairmen and councillors as members of the campaign council abi?

That woman is madding mad walahi

2018: Rule of law should be subjected to national interest -Buhari

Now listen, if Buhari is voted in come 2019, constitution will be a thing of the past.

We are warning again!

Nigeria government has been paying tax to Boko Haram since the inception of Buhari government

This man is working for Apc. He said the same thing in Ekiti Ekiti. Nigeria is under a critical threat

No Kangaroo gathering will oust Senate leadership. Apc had better face governance and stop being petty

If you keep bringing past to justify the future, then one would be forced to query the legitimacy of the CHANGE mantra of Apc

Story for the gods

Buhari doesn't believe in law

Election don come

Good news

INEC and Nigeria police are threat to Nigeria Democracy

Buhari is a threat

Trash. So PDP has no party agent in the said unit?. Keep fooling yourself with rhetoric

He has resigned from being the Minority Leader, hence, the seat is undoubtedly vacant

Yardsticks for APC popularity and winning of Saturday "Buy"-elections.

Election is now do or die in Nigeria. Only God can save Nigeria

Buhari should be made to resign honorably for performing below expectations

The systemic problem Nigeria is facing has further changed the mentality if some leaders. How can Mr. Okorocha utter this trash? So unfortunate!

APC government can not do without lying.....more reason people do not believe in apc's government

it is unfortunate to read some comments here in support of the abnormalities orchestrated during the Edo governorship election. some even say these people are jobless et al. are you guys in tandem with what is happening to our electoral principle in Nigeria? the joy of democracy is when masses are given opportunity to elect their leaders respectively. Edo election Election is nothing but a rape on the hard earned democracy our forefathers fought for. Nigeria can only get better when we jettison party affiliations and interest.
