EKITI STATE – Hon. Opeyemi Bamidele, member of the House of Representatives and Labour Party, governorship aspirant in Ekiti State, says he has enough goodwill in the state to defeat the incumbent governor, Kayode Fayemi.


Mr. Bamidele represents Ado/Irepodun/Ifelodun Federal Constituency. He made the statement in Ado Ekiti yesterday, at the grand finale of his tour of the 16 local government areas. Donating 200 wheel-chairs to the physically challenged across the council areas, Mr. Bamidele said that popularity level of his party grows on the daily basis, despite its newness in the state.


It will be recalled that recently, the lawmaker abandoned the All Progressives Congress and joined the LP to pursue his governorship ambition. He warned his political detractors against harassment, as no amount of threats or killings would make him backtrack.


He stated the influence of the LP has spread all over the state, and pledged that certain percentage of employment would be ceded to the group for them to actualise their potentials if he is given the mandate to govern the state.


“This is a mission we must actualise. A race I must pursue to the end to put an end to the era of inconsistent policies and programmes in Ekiti. Ekiti needs serious interventions at this critical time and God has given us the scientific understanding of what the people’s needs are and how to solve them,” Mr. Bamidele said.


“LP is a broad-based coalition of determined people who are ready to bring the needed change to Ekiti. This is not a matter of political parties, but efforts to rescue Ekiti from doldrums.”


Bamidele advised the APC and other interested parties in the impending governorship election to embrace issue-based campaign and disengage from any habit that could bring disrepute to the highly scholastic and respectable people of the state.
