The former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Falode has paid homage to President Bola Tinubu in his residence and used the ocassion to inquire about his stance on Governor Biodun Oyebanji’s re-election.
President Tinubu reaffirmed his support, stating, I support Governor Biodun Oyebanji for a second term.
“Abiodun Abayomi Oyebanji, Governor of Ekiti State, is doing very very well. All the former Governors in the state are behind him.
And for us, Ekiti is not about the party we belong to; it is our primary constituency. It is by the unity of the state that people can benefit.
I just asked Mr. President expressly where his interest lies because the last time I was here, I asked him about his take on the governor, and he said that’s where his heart is.
I needed to ask him again this time around based on counter rumors about his position on the Ekiti State Governor to run for second term, and he told me that’s where he’s and that I should remain there. And so, I’ll remain with the Governor.”
