The former Minister of Aviation,
Femi Fani-Kayode has urged the Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose not to
dump the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Fayose had threatened to dump the
PDP in protest over the outcome of the party’s primary election which gave
former Vice President Atiku Abubakar the PDP presidential ticket over his
choice, Aminu Tambuwal, the Sokoto State governor.
Tambuwal came second with 693
votes, conceding the ticket to Abubakar, who scored 1,532 votes at the National
Convention held on Saturday in Port Harcourt. 12 aspirants battled for the
ticket.
Reacting to Fayose’s threat,
Fani-Kayode recalled that they had fought many battles together, hence he
should not leave.
In a tweet, the PDP chieftain
insisted that the final battle was about to be fought and that the PDP needed
Fayose.
He tweeted, “I urge my brother
@GovAyoFayose to sheath his sword and not to leave @OfficialPDPNig.
“Over the last few years, we have
fought many battles together and it was an honour to stand shoulder to shoulder
with you. The final battle is about to be fought and we need you in our ranks.”
