Non Governmental Organization, Ekiti Development Front (EDF) has again empowered another set of 163 residents of Ekiti with a call to them to give their votes to Dr. Kayode Fayemi, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate in the July 14, 2018 poll in the state.
The empowerment which was the fifth phase of the NGO’s programme held in Aramoko, Ekiti West Local Government of Ekiti had selected beneficiaries from Ekiti west and 4 other local governments in the state which include;Ado,Ijero, Efon, and Irepodun/Ifelodun Local Governments.
Speaking during the distribution of the materials to the beneficiaries during the programme held at Aramoko motor park on Tuesday, the convener of the programme, Barr. Adeoye Aribasoye said the people should ignore Governor Ayo Fayose’s propaganda and vote for Fayemi in July 14 poll.
He said Fayose has resorted to propaganda and lies against Fayemi because the Peoples’ Democratic Party government led by Fayose does not have any achievement it can use to campaign to of the people, hence it has resorted to propaganda and lies against the APC candidate.
According to him, “today it was lies of creation of cattle colonies against Fayemi, yesterday they said he initiated teachers sack in Kaduna and that he has said he will come and sack teachers in Ekiti, this was how they said Fayemi has a university in Ghana four years ago and up till now the said university has no name”
